The NASA Science and Applications Information System, which is based on telescience and must provide remote interaction between information system services in space and on the ground, is discussed. An infrastructure of networked facilities and institutionally provided support services is being developed. The technologies involved with providing telescience capability are examined, including automated data management services, new data acquisition systems, user support environment for system access, and the capability to access heterogeneous data bases and computational facilities from remote locations.
