NASA software catalogue: free access to technologies for earthly applications

摘要

NASA's 2017-18 software catalogue offers an extensive portfolio of software products for a wide variety of technical applications, all free to the public, without any royalty or copyright fees. Available in both hard copy and online, this third edition of the publication has contributions from all the agency's centres on data processing/storage, business systems, operations, propulsion and aeronautics. It includes many of the tools NASA uses to explore space and broaden our understanding of the universe. A number of software packages are being presented for release for the first time. Each catalogue entry is accompanied by a plain language description of what it does.
