The Technical Interchange Meeting (TIM) was held in two parts. The pre-meeting provided an experienced-based overview of SmallSat mission development for the benefit of investigators new to space flight mission project management and implementation. The main meeting fostered new relationships and interactions among the NASA community providing a forum to freely exchange experiences and information on a variety of topics relevant to SmallSat mission success.

Invitation to this TIM does not imply anything regarding award status for any NASA proposals currently under review and pending selection.

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.
