Popis: NASA's X2000 Program is important for many reasons - It develops the technology that will enable new types of deep space space exploration - It is a new, faster and cheaper process for technology infusion into NASA missions - It transfers these capabilities to US industry so they are available for future spacecraft. Many of these new capabilities are relevant to Earth missions as well X2000 will work with the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (and others) to help make these capabilities available to a larger community.
