3 Technology Program Overview The Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO) is a targeted, science-driven, competed, actively managed, and dynamically communicated technology program and serves as a model for technology development. Competitive, peer-reviewed proposals enable selection of best-of-class technology investments that retire risk before major dollars are invested: a cost-effective approach to technology development and validation. ESTO investment elements include: Observation! Information! Validation! Instrument Incubator Program (IIP) provides robust new instruments and measurement techniques 16 new projects added in FY11 (total funding approximately $67M over 3 years) Advanced Component Technologies (ACT) provides development of critical components and subsystems for instruments and platforms 15 new projects added in FY11 (total funding approximately $16M over 3 years) Advanced Information Systems Technology (AIST) provides innovative on-orbit and ground capabilities for communication, processing, and management of remotely sensed data and the efficient generation of data products 18 new projects added in FY12 (total funding approximately $23M over 3-4 years) In-Space Validation of Earth Science Technologies (InVEST) In-orbit technology validation and risk reduction for instrument components and small instruments that could not otherwise be fully tested on the ground or in airborne systems Four 3U CubeSats funded for ~ $13M over four years
4 Science Driven: Enabling the Earth Science Decadal Survey Upon publication of the Earth Science Decadal Survey in 2007, ESTO investments already supported all 18 of the recommended mission concepts. Since then, ESTO has awarded 107 additional technology projects representing an investment of over $211M directly related to the Earth Science priorities outlined by the Decadal Survey * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Tier I Tier II Tier III Instrument Technology Investments Information Systems Investments Direct Applicability planned aircraft testing planned balloon testing *Proposed Mission - Pre-Decisional for Planning and Discussion Purposes Only Component Technology Investments Information Systems Investments Secondary Applicability

11 In-Space Technology Validation for Earth Science (InVEST) Awards The need to space-validate new technologies is critical and ongoing. The In-Space Validation of Earth Science Technologies (InVEST) program is intended to fill the gap. The first four InVEST awards (out of 23 proposals) were selected in April The solicitation sought small instruments and instrument subsystems that will advance technology to enable relevant Earth science measurements and targeted the CubeSat platform. Total first-year funding is approximately $3M. The Microwave Radiometer Technology Acceleration (MiRaTA*) Cubesat would validate multiple subsystem technologies and demonstrate new sensing modalities that could dramatically enhance the capabilities of future weather and climate sensing architectures - W. Blackwell, MIT Lincoln Laboratory The Radiometer Assessment Using Vertically Aligned Nanotubes (RAVAN*) project would demonstrate a bolometer radiometer that is compact, low cost, and absolutely accurate to NIST traceable standards. RAVAN could lead to affordable CubeSat constellations that, in sufficient numbers, might measure Earth s radiative diurnal cycle and absolute energy imbalance to climate accuracies (globally at 0.3 W/m2) for the first time. - L. Dyrud, Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory HARP Inst. Bus The Cubesat Flight Demonstration of a Photon Counting Infrared Detector (LMPC* CubeSat) would demonstrate in space, a new detector with high quantum efficiency and single photon level response at several important remote sensing wavelength detection bands from 0.9 to 4.0 microns. - R. Fields, The Aerospace Corporation The HyperAngular Rainbow Polarimeter HARP*-CubeSat would validate a technology required by the Aerosol- Cloud-Ecosystem (ACE) mission concept and prove the capabilities of a highly-accurate, wide-fov, hyperangle, imaging polarimeter for characterizing aerosol and cloud properties. - J. V. Martins, University of Maryland, Baltimore County *Proposed Mission - Pre-Decisional for Planning and Discussion Purposes Only
