located in the heart of West Virginia’s technology sector in Fairmont, West Virginia. The facility is named in honor of West Virginia native and NASA “hidden figure” Katherine Johnson.  Born in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia in 1918, Katherine\u2019s intense curiosity and brilliance with numbers lead her to a distinguished career with the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics and NASA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NASA’s IV&V Program was established in 1993 as a direct result of recommendations made by the National Research Council (NRC) and the Report of the Presidential Commission on the Space Shuttle Challenger Accident.  Since its inception, the IV&V Program has been contributing to the safety and success of NASA\u2019s highest-profile missions by assuring the software on those missions performs correctly.  The IV&V Program falls administratively under NASA\u2019s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) located in Greenbelt, Maryland and operates under functional guidance from the Office of Safety and Mission Assurance (OSMA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional About IV&V Areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/ivvs-vision-mission-and-values\/\">Mission and Values<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/ivv-program-flyers\/\">Program Flyers<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/people\/wes-deadrick\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wes-deadrick-director-of-nasas-ivv-program\/\">Director’s Bio<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/ivv-organization\/\">IV&V Organization<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/visiting-the-katherine-johnson-ivv-facility\/\">Visiting Us<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/ivv-services\/\">IV&V Services<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/doing-business-with-ivv\/\">Doing Business<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/jon-mcbride-software-testing-and-research-jstar\/\">Jon McBride Software Testing and Research (JSTAR)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/ivv-stem-engagement\/\">STEM Engagement<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:21px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-featured-file-list bg-spacesuit-white padding-x-2 tablet:padding-x-3 desktop:padding-x-4 padding-y-5 desktop:padding-y-6 hds-module hds-module-full wp-block-nasa-blocks-file-list\">\t<div class=\"grid-container grid-container-block padding-0\">\n\t\t<div class=\"grid-row width-full margin-bottom-4\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"grid-col-12 desktop:grid-col-6 margin-bottom-2 desktop:margin-bottom-0\">\n\t\t\t\t<h2 role=\"textbox\" class=\"heading-22\">\n\t\t\t\t\tIV&V Program Highlights\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"grid-col-12 desktop:grid-col-6\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desktop:grid-col display-flex flex-align-center desktop:flex-justify-end\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-list-row hds-file-list-row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-list-thumbnail hds-file-list-thumbnail\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-list-thumbnail-inner hds-file-list-thumbnail-inner hds-cover-wrapper\"><figure class=\"hds-media-background  \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ivv-fy23-program-highlights-image.png?w=150&h=150&crop=1\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" style=\"transform: scale(1.6);
