Astrophysics Tech Gaps Webinar on 14 May 2024

The NASA Astrophysics Technology Gap List update in 2024 is underway and we are seeking input from the science community to help NASA identify gaps between today’s state-of-the-art technologies and what will be needed for future strategic astrophysics missions.

Please join technologists from the three NASA Astrophysics thematic Program Offices — Cosmic Origins (COR), Exoplanet Exploration Program (ExEP), and Physics of the Cosmos (PhysCOS) — on 14 May 2024 at 2p Eastern (11a Pacific) for a 60-minute public webinar that will provide an overview of the technology gap process. There will be time for Q&A.
