Introduction
Selected Current Aerospace Notices (SCAN) is a weekly electronic
current awareness journal that announces recently issued
report and journal literature from the NASA scientific
and technical information knowledge base. SCAN covers
the full spectrum of aeronautics and aerospace-related
information and segments it into subject groupings, or
topics, which are narrower in scope than the 76 categories
provided by Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports
(STAR). Furthermore, SCAN announces documents simultaneously
in all relevant topics. Document citations announced
in STAR are presented in only the one subject category
deemed most appropriate.
Each of the 186 SCAN topics is
carefully tailored to fit the needs of a specialized research
activity. New topics are added as the need arises, and others
are retired or
redefined as research demands dictate.
SCAN Access
Methods
Updated weekly, SCAN is a free announcement service listing

research needs in subjects like Earth resources and remote sensing,
behavioral sciences, optics, and mechanical engineering. Readers
