The Research Platform is a sophisticated, fully open-source, multi-tenant cloud environment specifically designed to support scientific workloads for NASA civil servants, contractors, and NASA-funded researchers, including ROSES grant recipients. Please note that the platform is currently in development and is in testing. To gain access and help evaluate the platform, please contact the Science Cloud Research and Innovation Lead, Ramon Ramirez-Linan, at ramon.e.ramirez-linan@nasasupport team at support@sciencecloud.nasa.gov. Built on a familiar JupyterLab foundation, it comes enhanced with curated tools for AI-assisted coding (Notebook Intelligence), parallel computing (Dask), and natural language dataset discovery (BExplorer).

Science and Technology Authorization Realm
The Science and Technology Authorization Realm (STAR) is a centralized identity-management and authorization platform supporting NASA research ecosystems. STAR uses an isolated, per-tenant model to ensure security and privacy. Each onboarded application receives a dedicated environment, with user groups and roles configured according to the tenant's audience and access requirements. STAR is highly customizable for administrators and integrates seamlessly with major external identity providers, including InCommon, ORCID, and Login.gov.
The infrastructure runs on a highly available cloud architecture scaled across multiple availability zones to ensure STAR stays reliable to support the research community, NASA internal users, federated partners, and a wide range of applications.
