The NASA Space Environments and Effects Program (SEE): Over a Decade of Useful Products for Spacecraft Designers and OperatorsSEE program management originated at LaRC in the early 1990's but was transferred to MSFC in FY 1995 and has remained at Marshall since that time, SEE uses 5 technical working groups and NRA's (three since 1994) to achieve its technical objectives. The SEE vision is to develop and maintain a preeminent program in SPACE ENVIRONMENTS AND EFFECTS which provides a coordinated national focus for innovative technology development to support design, development, and operation of spacecraft systems that will accommodate or mitigate effects due to the presence of the space environment. In working toward that goal, SEE has produced, through the years, over 30 major Space Environments and Effects Models and Databases, over 75 major Space Environments and Effects Publications, a website that has had over 112,000 hits since its inception (http://see.msfc.nasa.gov/), distribution of physical products that amounts to over a total of over 260 product deliveries, sponsorship of the last four international Spacecraft Charging Technology Conferences (the major subject matter conference in the world), and sponsorship of numerous technical standards and guidelines in the Space Environments area. Among the recent popular SEE products are the Electric Propulsion Interactions Code (EPIC), the NASA/Air Force Spacecraft Charging Analysis Program (NASCAP-2K), the Interactive Spacecraft Charging Handbook, the Cosmic Ray Effects on Microelectronics Code (CREME 96), the Spacecraft Contamination and Materials Outgassing Effects Knowledge base (SCMOEK), and the Lunar E-Library.
