This project aims to accelerate flight hardware development and test schedules utilizing additive manufacturing technologies and a Flight Test Platform (FTP) to support low Earth orbit and ISS missions and experiments. The FTP will integrate into the MISSE or NREP external platforms and provide new capabilities to support the evaluation of materials and subsystems all focused on additive manufacturing. This project aims to transition into a marketable capability that will increase the opportunity for multiple industries to develop, test, and fly hardware and experiments on the ISS or low Earth orbit spacecraft at reduced cost and schedule.
