<\/figure>NASA hosted its second annual Architecture Concept Review in mid-November, bringing together leaders from across the agency to discuss progress on and updates to NASA\u2019s Moon to Mars architecture since NASA released outcomes from its first such review in April<\/a>.<\/p>\n As NASA builds a blueprint for human exploration throughout the solar system<\/a> for the benefit of humanity, the agency has established the internal Architecture Concept Review process to help align NASA\u2019s Moon to Mars exploration strategy and codify the supporting architecture through robust analysis. Through this evolutionary process, NASA continuously updates its roadmap for crewed exploration, setting humanity on a path to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.<\/p>\n \u201cOur yearly strategic analysis cycle informs architecture decisions by identifying technology gaps, performing trade studies, and soliciting feedback from industry, academia, and the international community,\u201d said Catherine Koerner, deputy associate administrator for NASA\u2019s Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate. \u201cThis year\u2019s review focused on identifying the foundational decisions needed for a crewed mission to Mars and adding more detail to how we break down our objectives for long-term lunar exploration into specific architectural elements.\u201d<\/p>\n During the review, NASA also began to define potentially viable and affordable opportunities for new programs and projects that close capability gaps.<\/p>\n NASA will share the results of this year\u2019s Architecture Concept Review cycle early next year. This will include an update to the agency\u2019s Architecture Definition Document and associated white papers, which provide additional detail on results from this year\u2019s strategic analysis cycle.<\/p>\n Both the updated Architecture Definition Document and white papers will be made available on NASA\u2019s Moon to Mars architecture webpages.<\/a><\/p>\n Powered by WPeMatico<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n Get The Details…<\/a> NASA hosted its second annual Architecture Concept Review in mid-November, bringing together leaders from across the agency to discuss progress on and updates to NASA\u2019s Moon to Mars architecture since NASA released outcomes from its first such review in April.
