Introduction<br />
Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR) is an onl<strong>in</strong>e <strong>in</strong>formation resource list<strong>in</strong>g<br />
citations and abstracts of <strong>NASA</strong> and world wide aerospace-related <strong>STI</strong>. Updated biweekly, STAR<br />
highlights the most recent additions to the <strong>NASA</strong> Aeronautics and Space Database. Through this<br />
resource, the <strong>NASA</strong> <strong>STI</strong> <strong>Program</strong> provides timely access to the most current aerospace-related<br />
Research & Development (R&D) results.<br />
STAR subject coverage <strong>in</strong>cludes all aspects of aeronautics and space research and development,<br />
support<strong>in</strong>g basic and applied research, and application, as well as aerospace aspects of Earth<br />
resources, energy development, conservation, oceanography, environmental protection, urban<br />
transportation and other topics of high national priority. The list<strong>in</strong>g is arranged first by 11 broad<br />
subject divisions, then with<strong>in</strong> these divisions by 76 subject categories and <strong>in</strong>cludes two <strong>in</strong>dexes:<br />
subject and author.<br />
STAR <strong>in</strong>cludes citations to Research & Development (R&D) results reported <strong>in</strong>:<br />
• <strong>NASA</strong>, <strong>NASA</strong> contractor, and <strong>NASA</strong> grantee reports<br />
• Reports issued by other U.S. Government agencies, domestic and foreign <strong>in</strong>stitution,<br />
universities, and private firms<br />
• Translations<br />
• <strong>NASA</strong>-owned patents and patent applications<br />
• Other U.S. Government agency and foreign patents and patent applications<br />
• Domestic and foreign dissertations and theses<br />
The <strong>NASA</strong> <strong>STI</strong> <strong>Program</strong><br />
The <strong>NASA</strong> Scientific and Technical Information (<strong>STI</strong>) <strong>Program</strong> was established to support the<br />
objectives of <strong>NASA</strong>’s missions and research to advance aeronautics and space science. By<br />
shar<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>formation, the <strong>NASA</strong> <strong>STI</strong> <strong>Program</strong> ensures that the U.S. ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong>s its preem<strong>in</strong>ence <strong>in</strong><br />
aerospace-related <strong>in</strong>dustries and education, m<strong>in</strong>imizes duplication of research, and <strong>in</strong>creases<br />
research productivity.<br />
Through the <strong>NASA</strong> Center for AeroSpace Information (CASI), the <strong>NASA</strong> <strong>STI</strong> <strong>Program</strong><br />
acquires, processes, archives, announces and dissem<strong>in</strong>ates both <strong>NASA</strong>’s <strong>in</strong>ternal <strong>STI</strong> and worldwide<br />
<strong>STI</strong>. The results of 20th and 21st century aeronautics and aerospace research and<br />
development, a worldwide <strong>in</strong>vestment total<strong>in</strong>g billions of dollars, have been captured, organized,<br />
and stored <strong>in</strong> the <strong>NASA</strong> Aeronautics and Space Database. New <strong>in</strong>formation is cont<strong>in</strong>ually<br />
announced and made available as it is acquired, mak<strong>in</strong>g this a dynamic and historical collection<br />
of value to bus<strong>in</strong>ess, <strong>in</strong>dustry, academia, federal <strong>in</strong>stitutions, and the general public.<br />
The <strong>STI</strong> <strong>Program</strong> offers products and tools that allow efficient access to the wealth of<br />
<strong>in</strong>formation derived from global R&D efforts. In addition, customized services are available to<br />
help tailor this valuable resource to meet your specific needs.<br />
