Eleven Nevada suppliers contributed to NASA’s Artemis program. An 

example of the state’s contributions is composite materials used for 

panels on Orion for Artemis I.

NASA’s partnership with the University of Nevada Reno’s Geodetic Laboratory on Seal Level Rise uses the precision, 

coverage, and prevalence of open data holdings that are now available from GPS stations to estimate the rates and 

patterns of vertical land movement and evaluate the balance of uplift and subsidence across the Earth’s surface. Please
