Questions and exclusions

Required questions

1. Required question 1 (exact ID: question-1)
   Does the official source establish the entity, current program, and bounded capability described?
2. Required question 2 (exact ID: question-2)
   Are potential fit, risks, access, geography, and engagement boundaries current and proportionate?
3. Required question 3 (exact ID: question-3)
   Could any wording imply partnership, endorsement, availability, procurement, authority, or affiliation that does not exist?

Explicit exclusions

• Indexing is not endorsement, due diligence completion, outreach, procurement, or a relationship.
• No aggregate organization score or sponsor-purchased ranking is permitted.

Requested controlled scopes: ecosystem-due-diligence, information-science

Frozen-evidence decision window: 90 days from the packet freeze. Not applicable to this packet family.

Complete primary record set

Every record below has one primary packet owner. Decisions must bind to the exact record and packet fingerprints; a changed lesson body, evidence grade, citation, locator, source snapshot, requirement, policy, release, or commit expires the old packet.

   Capability

   Space power and propulsion, thermal and fluid systems, communications, materials, energy conversion, vacuum testing, and aerospace technology development.

   Profile Summary

   NASA Glenn Research Center conducts civil aerospace research in propulsion, power, energy storage and conversion, communications, materials, thermal systems, fluid physics, and testing, with major vacuum and space-environment facilities in Ohio.

   Potential Fit

   Glenn work could inform power buses, energy conversion, electric propulsion, thermal rejection, communications, materials, and resource-processing precursors. Current facilities and missions do not reproduce a complete centuries-long vehicle or its industrial ecology.

   Risks

   1. Facility and personnel access depend on NASA mission priorities, agreements, funding, and schedule.
   2. Subsystem test success does not validate integration, maintainability, or resource closure.
   3. High-power propulsion and communications may carry export-control or dual-use constraints.
   4. NASA programme schedules and technical pages change.

   Evidence Boundary

   The official site establishes Glenn's research areas and facilities; it does not establish access, a proposed scope, endorsement, or a flight-ready generation-ship power or propulsion system.

   Conflicts

   1. GShips could seek federal research support, facility work, or reputational benefit from NASA association.

   What Would Change

   A relevant solicitation, authorized facility feasibility response, completed representative subsystem test, and independently reviewed integration evidence would change fit.

Frozen source snapshots

Source inclusion does not determine the disposition. Reviewers must inspect the cited locator and relation, note inaccessible material, and identify stronger or conflicting evidence.

Offline packet and worksheet

Downloads contain no reviewer contact details. Downloading does not create an account or store a review response in the GShips application. Ordinary provider request or analytics logs may record the download request. Work locally: the public site has no review account, upload endpoint, or decision-submission API.

Do not paste a completed decision, identity documents, private contact data, confidential conflict evidence, medical information, controlled material, or exploit details into a public form. Until a separately authorized private handoff exists, retain the completed worksheet locally.

Packet schema · JSON · Decision-bundle schema · JSON

Validate offline

Use Node.js 22.13.0 or later. Keep the packet, worksheet, completed decision, and all six kit files together in a local directory.

1. Download the six kit files below. Complete a copy of the JSON template offline and preserve its templateFingerprint.
2. Finalize a separate output file.

   node finalize-review-decision.mjs \
     --input DRAFT.json \
     --output COMPLETED.json

   This marks the copy complete and calculates an unkeyed canonical bundle fingerprint. A fingerprint detects changes; it is not a reviewer signature.

3. Validate the packet and completed copy.

   node check-review-decisions.mjs \
     --packet PACKET.json \
     --decision COMPLETED.json

   Add another --decision for each independent reviewer.

4. Interpret the result narrowly. A zero exit proves structural consistency only. Neither command appoints or qualifies a reviewer, establishes independence, accepts a decision, or authorizes publication.
