| Additional Info |
NSSC pioneers space weather operational research projects, technologies, and forecasts in China. NSSC acquires expertise in modeling space environment that may impact spacecraft and facilitates space weather prediction applications. Its repository covers a broad range of space environments relevant to (including but not limited to) atmosphere, ionosphere and radio propagation, space plasma and radiation, and deep space with the latter mainly referring to the interplanetary space or the space close to the Sun and celestial objects in the solar system. The center endeavors to construct state-of-the-art architecture design for space environmental technology systems, to standardize space environmental database, and to promote the transformation process from models to operational services. It also solicits commercial space environmental technology systems, numerical simulation platform, prediction and analysis tools, and educational services to space agencies and other potential users.
To keep up with the requirements raised by manned space programs, satellite operations, and other deep space explorations facing space environmental complexities and challenges, NSSC utilizes its intelligence and models or tools to analysis or predict space environmental events, parameters, and the consequent spacecraft effect. NSSC has been assigned multiple tasks to provide safeguard services for China Space Station (CSS), lunar explorations, Strategic Priority Program on Space Science, etc.
