This coming fall, NASA/Goddard will host the first Carriers for Science Investigations (CSI) workshop which will provide an introduction to Exploration Carriers. Similar to the Space Shuttle’s Hitchhiker program, Exploration Carriers has the potential to carry scientific investigations and technology experiments onboard the Orion crew exploration vehicle. As Orion vehicle designs are maturing, the purpose of the workshop is to gauge the science community’s interest in the development of this capability.
Due to limited capacity, this workshop is invitation only. If you are interested in receiving more information about Exploration Carriers and/or any publications that result from the workshop, please send an email Exploration Systems Projects at csi-workshop@majordomo.gsfc.nasa.gov. Be sure to include your name, contact information, affiliation, and a brief description of your interest in Exploration Carriers.
As more information becomes available we will update this space.
