Why NTRs are important
Your NTRs can help solve technical challenges not only within NASA but also throughout society
Your NTRs can help solve technical challenges not only within NASA but also throughout society
Although New Technology Reports are required by NASA policy, it is important to remember that NTRs are the key first step along a path to expanding your work to benefit NASA and our society.
New Technology Reports:
Help NASA make the most of taxpayers' R&D investment by maximizing the use of cutting-edge technologies across the Agency and—in some cases—patenting the intellectual property (IP) and pursuing commercialization
› More on why NASA needs your NTRs
Help society as NASA technologies spin off into new uses that save lives, improve our quality of life, create jobs, and boost the economy
› More on how NTRs help society
Help you protect valuable IP, gain recognition for your R&D, receive appreciation via awards, and earn royalty revenue
Every new technology or technical improvement has the chance to make a difference. But none of this can happen if we don't know about it. So submit your NTRs, and we will work to make these potential benefits a reality.
