Warner Urges Focus on Renewable Energy at Hampton Summit Several scientists from NASA Langley¹s Science Directorate attended an energy summit hosted by Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) on Friday. The goal of the summit was to determine how Virginians can maximize new opportunities in energy generation and management.

Notes from the Field Mini stories and scientist profiles that show how Applied Science work is done and what it accomplishes.

Upcoming Events Food Security Media Campaign NASA will be coming out with a series of feature stories and researcher profiles, a new NASA Web page, and a live media event to promote NASA’s research and applications that advance food security – that is, the viability and sustainability of food supplies in the U.S. and around the globe.

NASA produces research results, such as observations from satellites, predictions from models, and knowledge from scientific research. These research results have the potential to serve society beyond their intended purpose of answering pressing Earth system science questions.

NASA’s Applied Sciences Program systematically evaluates the potential of these research results to serve society by conducting projects with regional and national scale operational partners. The partners have the responsibility to provide information to decision makers for a specific aspect of the Earth system. These projects address NASA’s areas of National Applications.
