The Small Spacecraft Technology Program (SSTP) within the NASA Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) is chartered to enable mission capabilities that are more rapid, more transformative, and more affordable than previously achievable. To that end, the SST program seeks to: • Enable the execution of missions at much lower cost than previously possible. • Substantially reduce the time required for development of spacecraft, from authority to proceed until initial launch capability. • Enable and demonstrate new mission architectures that small spacecraft are uniquely suited for. • Expand the capability of small spacecraft to execute missions at new destinations and in challenging new environments. • Enable the augmentation of existing assets and future missions with supporting small spacecraft. This paper will describe the NASA SSTP SmallSat Technology Partnerships (STP), completed and upcoming Missions Capability Demonstrations for technology demonstrations under SSTP1 and provides a synopsis of the leveraged investments under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR). A brief overview of the Small Spacecraft Systems Virtual Institute (S3VI) and its current activities performed in conjunction with SSTP is also provided.
