“Everyone has their challenges, regardless of if you have a disability or not, so making people comfortable talking about it and bringing it up is always good. I think I’ve always liked speaking up for individuals and trying to spread that awareness, which has been great with DAAG." -Ryan D. Brown, chair of NASA Glenn's Disability Awareness Advisory Group (DAAG). DAAG strives to provide individuals with disabilities equal opportunities in all aspects of employment. The group also strives to identify and eliminate workplace barriers, raise awareness, and ensure accessible facilities. Hear from Brown and former chair of 12 years Kathy Clark as they reflect on the group's legacy and future: https://lnkd.in/gfwvjkta Credit: NASA/Jef Janis #NDEAM #NationalDisabilityEmploymentAwarenessMonth #DisabilityAwareness

We design & test innovative technology to revolutionize air travel, advance space exploration, & improve life on Earth.
About us
Located near Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, Glenn's main campus, Lewis Field, has world-class facilities including wind tunnels, drop towers, vacuum chambers, and a research aircraft hangar. Glenn’s Neil Armstrong Test Facility in Sandusky, Ohio, is home to the world’s largest and most powerful space environment simulation chambers. It is the only place in the world that can test a full-sized spacecraft for all the extreme conditions of launch and spaceflight. One of ten NASA centers, Glenn’s work is essential to the agency and integral to the regional economy.

New NASA Quantum Sensors Open Possibilities in Air Travel, Space Exploration NASA’s Glenn Research Center recently designed and tested a new quantum sensor used to identify materials and their chemical structure. Made of silicon carbide, this sensor uses quantum mechanics to measure the electric and magnetic fields of atoms. This “quantum sensing” approach allows for new types of sensors that are more accurate, and over 10 times smaller, than what is currently available. These improvements could open new possibilities in areas from air travel to space exploration. The sensors are small enough that they could be mounted on airplane wings, for example, to measure the build-up of dangerous ice along its surface. Future rovers and satellites could also carry these sensors to distant planets and moons to accurately measure their chemical and structural makeup.

Do you have ideas for human health science that could be performed on the future Gateway lunar space station? NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), are seeking information on human health research that could be implemented on humanity’s first space station around the Moon as part of the Artemis program. All parties including commercial entities, international organizations, academia, NASA Centers, and other government agencies are eligible to send ideas. Ideas must be submitted by Nov. 25, 2024.

For over 40 years, NASA’s Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) constellation provided reliable communications services to missions, supporting the discovery of groundbreaking science data for nearly half a century. Now, as of November 2024, the Near Space Network will no longer onboard new TDRS users. Instead, Glenn’s Communications Services Project is pioneering a new era of space communications by partnering with commercial industry to develop and demonstrate satellite relay services for future spaceflight missions.

#OTD in 1997, NASA launched the groundbreaking Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn. It was a tremendous yet bittersweet achievement for NASA Lewis (today, NASA Glenn) as it was the 119th, and final, launch managed by the center, bringing to a close a 35-year legacy. The Cassini mission helped scientists uncover the mysteries of Saturn, relaying thousands of images and enabling decades of research. Techniques developed during Cassini have also informed more recent exploration missions, including #EuropaClipper, which launched Oct. 14.
