A new study report may help NASA define and align biological and physical
sciences research to uniquely advance scientific knowledge, meet human and
robotic exploration mission needs, and provide benefits for all over the next
decade.
The agency announced Tuesday it received the National Academies of Sciences,
Engineering, and Medicine’s latest decadal survey on biological and
physical sciences research.
“NASA looks forward to reviewing the recommendations in detail and
appreciates the steering committee and panels for their dedicated work to
deliver this report,” said Nicola Fox, associate administrator, Science
Mission Directorate, at NASA Headquarters in Washington. “The survey will
inform a compelling new chapter in biological and physical sciences research
in space and provide recommendations on ways to support the technologies and
infrastructure that will be needed to carry out the science.”
The report, “Thriving in Space – Ensuring the Future of Biological and
Physical Sciences Research: A Decadal Survey for 2023-2032,” includes
recommendations to implement a comprehensive strategy and vision for
transformative science at the frontiers of biological and physical sciences
research in space.
“The continued use of space to study biological and physical phenomena
enables researchers to pursue innovations and discoveries not possible on
Earth,” said Lisa Carnell, director, Biological and Physical Sciences
Division, at the agency’s headquarters. “We look forward to using the
survey to guide our next decade of transformative science as we maintain U.S.
science leadership in space.”
