NASA Tech Briefs

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is required by its charter to report to industry any new, commercially significant technologies developed in the course of their R&D.

Over the years, hundreds of such documents were published and disseminated covering many areas of science and industry.

The material for these documents was collected by TU offices in each of the NASA field centers, as well as from all of their contractors.

Since then, it has been a joint publishing venture of NASA and Tech Briefs Media Group, a unit of SAE International, since 1985.
