The NESC’s mission is to perform value-added independent testing, analysis, and assessments of NASA’s high-risk activities to ensure safety and mission success. We engage proactively to help NASA avoid future problems.

A Unique ResourceTheNESCisanAgency-wideresourcethatprovides a forum for reporting technical issues and contributing alternative viewpoints to resolve NASA’s highest-risk challenges. Our multidisciplinary teamsof ready experts provide distinctivelyunbiased technical assessments to enable more informed decisions.

Engineering ExcellenceThe NESC draws on the knowledge base of technical experts from across NASA,industry,academia,andothergovernmentagencies. Collaborating with leading engineersallowstheNESCtoconsistentlyoptimize processes, strengthen technicalcapabilities, and broaden perspectives.This practice further reinforces the NESC’s commitmenttoengineeringexcellence.

Independence and ObjectivityThe NESC performs technical assessments and provides recommendations based on independent testing and analysis ratherthan subjective opinion. An independent reporting path and independent funding from the Office of the Chief Engineerhelp ensure objective technical results for NASA.
