NIAC

NIAC, or the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts program, funds cutting-edge research and ideas that could transform future space technologies and exploration. It supports visionary projects—like new propulsion systems, advanced habitats, or innovative engineering methods—that are still in the early stages but have the potential to significantly advance NASA’s mission goals. NIAC acts as an incubator for bold concepts, encouraging scientists and engineers to think beyond current limitations and explore revolutionary solutions for space travel and discovery.
