In September 2011, NASA released a draft request for proposals (RFP). [47] The final RFP was released on February 7, 2012, with proposals due on March 23, 2012. [48] [49] The funded Space Act Agreements were awarded on August 3, 2012, and amended on August 15, 2013. [50] [51] The selected proposals were announced August 3, 2012:
Orion, as a later design, after the initial plans for the Crew Exploration Vehicle led to development of the Orion. The Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) was a component of the U.S. NASA Vision for Space Exploration plan. A competition was held to design a spacecraft that could carry humans to the destinations envisioned by the plan.
Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) is a NASA program to hire companies to send small robotic landers and rovers to the Moon.Most landing sites are near the lunar south pole [1] [2] where they will scout for lunar resources, test in situ resource utilization (ISRU) concepts, and perform lunar science to support the Artemis lunar program.
On February 14, 2019, NASA hosted an Industry Forum at NASA HQ to provide an overview of the Human Landing System (HLS) BAA. [ 13 ] In April 2019 NASA announced a formal request for proposals for Appendix H of NextSTEP-2 allowing American companies to submit bids for the design and development of the Ascent Element of the Human Landing System ...
Furthermore, NASA is focusing on operating its own lunar exploration projects: Lunar Gateway station, with contracts to private companies to develop and provide space suits (Exploration Extravehicular Activity Services program), [3] the placement of payloads onto the Moon (Commercial Lunar Payload Services program) and the landing of astronauts ...
The original inventors of SHINE are Mark L. James and David J. Atkinson. SHINE is an expert system and inference engine based upon the experience, requirements and technology that were collected by the Artificial Intelligence Research group at NASA/JPL in developing expert systems for the diagnosis of spacecraft health.

The search engine first filters search terms in several ways. An M followed by a space or hyphen has the space or hyphen removed, so that searching for Messier catalogue objects is simplified and a user input of M45, M 45 or M-45 all result in the same query being executed; similarly, NGC designations and common search terms such as Shoemaker ...
NASA decided to discard the study designs and the mission module cabin, and based the lunar landing mission design on Faget's inhouse design, with a cone-shaped command module, supported by a cylindrical service module containing return propulsion and supporting equipment. This would be carried to the lunar surface by a still-to-be-defined ...
