ISS Research Is Still Uncoordinated

NASA Solicitation: Human Exploration Research Opportunities NASA Research Announcement
“This National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Research Announcement (NRA), entitled Human Exploration Research Opportunities (HERO)-2014, solicits applied research in support of NASA’s Human Research Program. The HRP contains six Elements: Space Radiation, Human Health and Countermeasures, Exploration Medical Capability, Behavioral Health and Performance, Space Human Factors and Habitability, and International Space Station Medical Project. Fourteen disciplines or areas support the Program: Behavioral Health and Performance, Bone, Cardiovascular, Extravehicular Activity, Immunology, Medical Capabilities, Muscle, Nutrition, Pharmacology, Radiation, Sensorimotor, Advanced Food Technology, Advanced Environmental Health, and Space Human Factors Engineering.”
Keith’s note: No mention of this NASA Research Announcement is to be found at CASIS or at the ISS National Lab page at NASA. NASA wants you to think that a lot of important research is being done on the ISS yet the agency can’t even coordinate its own internal efforts for something as simple as this? Is anyone in charge?

    Keith,
    You know that only committees and groups are “in charge”, in order to guarantee that no one individual can be held accountable. That’s the way all U.S. Agencies are designed. Go watch Murder on the Orient Express again. They all did it.
