Research Programs
The LEARN Project
The LEARN Project provided opportunities for innovators from outside NASA to perform research, analysis, and proof-of-concept development of their novel ideas that have the potential to meet national aeronautics needs. The ResearchItem provided resources for early-stage efforts not supported by NASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD) Programs and Projects, with the goal of infusing promising concepts into the ARMD research portfolio or into NASA's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program for further development. After eight rounds of awards, the LEARN Project has been phased out. There will be no new LEARN solicitations and awards.
