Abstract What are the mission applications of microspacecraft and nanospacecraft? What are the technology needs to enable these missions? What work is currently being done, and what is the state-of-the-art? What are the challenges? This paper provides an overview of National Aeronautics and Space Administrations (NASA) microspacecraft and nanospacecraft mission applications. A survey of the state-of-the-art and an overview of current development activities are provided, in addition to identifying the technologies needed to enable these mission applications. Technical challenges particular to NASA micro/nano-spacecraft missions are discussed.
