Knowledge Category: Lessons Learned

The Lessons Learned Bot API is a REST Application Programming Interface (API) that can be accessed using a variety of web technologies and programming languages from anywhere within the NASA agency firewall. If your application is capable of accessing a REST API, which most are these days, then it should be possible to integrate the LLB API and its datasets, including thousands of Lessons Learned, into your existing application.

In near real-time, the Lessons Learned Bot, or LLB, brings lessons learned (LL) documents to users through a Microsoft Excel add-in application locally installed to search for LL content relevant to the text within the selected Excel cell. The application will encompass a corpus of documents, a trained Machine Learning (ML) model, built-in ML tools to train user’s documents, and an easy-to-use user interface to allow for the streamlined discovery of LL content.

Best practices for conducting high-purity hydrazine elemental analysis processes must be followed to avoid sample contamination that could impact space missions.

While pinching copper tubes is a standard practice for many applications on Earth, it presents challenges for spaceflight applications.

Potential modeling inaccuracy may be avoided in thermal vacuum tests by using heater plates instead of quartz lamps.

Sharing Knowledge and Leadership Insights to Support Project Success

The NASA Lessons Learned system provides access to official, reviewed lessons learned from NASA programs and projects. These lessons have been made available to the public by the NASA Office of the Chief Engineer and the NASA Engineering Network.

The JSC Space Shuttle Program Tacit Knowledge Capture Project was commissioned by the JSC Chief Knowledge Officer and the Space Shuttle Program Manager.
