Aeros<strong>pa</strong>ce Education Services Program (AESP) (CFDA<br />
No. 43.001) – A comprehensive project designed to reach<br />
out to the formal and informal education communities in all<br />
fifty states and the U.S. territories. The AESP staff consists<br />
of specialists who are professional educators assigned to<br />
each NASA center. The AESP specialists share NASA’s use<br />
of emerging instructional technologies and the motivating<br />
outcomes of NASA’s research, exploration and discovery<br />
with education communities and the public. It focuses on<br />
professional development that serves the elementary and<br />
secondary education community by providing classroom<br />
demonstrations, distance learning events, in-service training<br />
for educators, pre-service training for university students, and<br />
identification of appropriate NASA education <strong>resource</strong>s. It<br />
also motivates students to continue their study of science and<br />
mathematics throughout their school career and encourages<br />
them to pursue the NASA workforce pipeline.<br />

Technology Transfer (CFDA No. 43.002) – To insure that<br />
technologies resulting from Government-sponsored civilian<br />
aeros<strong>pa</strong>ce research and development are made available to<br />
the widest extent practicable and appropriate for the nation’s<br />
benefit. The NASA Small Business Innovation Research<br />
(SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR)<br />
programs provide an opportunity for small, high technology<br />
com<strong>pa</strong>nies and research institutions (RI) to <strong>pa</strong>rtici<strong>pa</strong>te in<br />
Federal Government sponsored research and development<br />
(R&D) efforts in key technology areas. The program provides<br />
the small business researcher, or RI, with a technology or idea,<br />
the opportunity to adapt or apply that technology towards<br />
a specific subtopic for NASA mission needs. If the idea or<br />
technology is recommended by a Center in response to a topic<br />
or subtopic need, a Phase 1 contract will be negotiated. Search<br />
the NASA SBIR/STTR Archives Gateway for information<br />
on previous awardees, and their innovations. NASA will not<br />
accept unsolicited proposals.<br />
