  NASA Astrophysics Division funds development of cutting-edge technology to
enable its missions to achieve ambitious and groundbreaking science goals.
These technology development efforts are managed by the Physics of the Cosmos,
Cosmic Origins, and Exoplanet Exploration Programs. The NASA Strategic
Astrophysics Technology Program (SAT) was established in 2009 as a new
technology maturation program to fill the gap in the Technology Readiness Level
range from 3 to 6. Since program inception, 100 SAT grants have been openly
competed and awarded, along with dozens of direct-funded projects, leading to a
host of technologies advancing their Technology Readiness Levels and/or being
infused into space and suborbital missions and ground-based projects. We
present the portfolio distribution in terms of specific technology areas
addressed, including optics, detectors, coatings, corona graphs, star shades,
lasers, electronics, and cooling subsystems. We show an analysis of the rate of
Technology Readiness Level advances, infusion success stories, and other
benefits such as training the future astrophysics workforce, including students
and postdoctoral fellows hired by projects. Finally, we present the
Astrophysics Division current strategic technology maturation priorities for
investment, enabling a range of future strategic astrophysics missions.
