Nasa Applications

The entire selection process will take up to 14 months. The online application deadline is Tuesday 2 April 2024.

Space agriculture has been improved significantly in the last few years through the application of space-based advances to terrestrial challenges. Researchers at NASA sent cotton seeds to the International Space Station to understand how cotton roots grow in the absence of gravity. Moreover, space agencies have been working on specialized systems t...

Japan and the United States says want to put the first Japanese astronaut on the Moon as the allies deepen cooperation on space projects. No non-American has ever touched down on the lunar surface, and Japan has previously said it hopes to achieve a Moon landing by the end of this decade.

NASA announced Monday its 10 latest trainee astronauts, who include a firefighter turned Harvard professor, a former member of the national cycle team, and a pilot who led the first-ever all-woman F-22 formation in combat.

NASA is developing an augmented reality (AR) application for astronauts to enable them to inspect and maintain equipment on the International Space Station (ISS) without needing assistance from ground control. This, the agency hopes, will reduce the impact of communication delays between the ISS crew and NASA mission control in Houston, Texas, US.

As NASA prepares to send the first woman and next man to the Moon with the Artemis programme, the agency, for the first time in more than four years, has begun accepting applications for future astronauts.

NASA on Friday celebrated its latest class of graduating astronauts at a public ceremony in Houston, honouring a diverse and gender-balanced group now qualified for spaceflight missions including America's return to the Moon and eventual journey to Mars.

NASA is inviting applications from start-ups to take part in a three-month pilot programme to develop new technologies for space.

NASA is currently looking for a suitable candidate to take on the role of a 'Planetary Protection Officer'. An enthusiastic applicant - a fourth grader who thinks he's fit for the job has applied for the position.

The 12 selected Wednesday will join 44 astronauts already in the NASA corps.

NASA has chosen 12 new astronauts, including an Indian-American, from a record number of over 18,000 applicants, who will be trained for missions into Earth orbit and to deep space.

The goal is to produce promising new approaches, treatments, countermeasures or technologies that have practical application to spaceflight.

In 2014, Harvard's acceptance rate was 5.9 percent. NASA's latest round of astronaut candidate applications is going to be just a little tougher: With a record-breaking 18,300-plus applications and just 14 spots, applicants have less than a .08 percent chance of getting picked for training.

The aspiration to become astronauts seems to have rocketed in the US as more than 18,300 people applied to join NASA's 2017 astronaut class, far surpassing the previous record of 8,000 in 1978.

NASA has received a record 18,300 resumes from people keen on becoming astronauts, the US space agency said on Friday.
