This document provides an overview of the organizational structure of NASA's Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate. It outlines the directorate's divisions including Space Operations, Exploration Systems Development, Human Spaceflight Capabilities, ISS, Commercial Spaceflight, and Advanced Exploration Systems. It also summarizes common capabilities needed for exploration like ground operations, in-space propulsion, environmental control life support systems, and radiation protection. Finally, it lists cross-cutting technologies, research areas, and ongoing technology developments important for human exploration.

Challenges
for
ARCtek
• How
will
we
ensure
the
health
and
produc8vity
of
the
crew
for
long
dura8on
and
long
distance
spaceflight
missions?
• How
will
we
operate
a
spacecra]
with
less
ground-‐
based
resources,
significant
communica8ons
delays,
and
limited
or
no
rapid
return
capabili8es?
• How
will
we
enable
effec8ve
and
coordinated
Human-‐
robo8c
explora8on
in
extreme
environments
and
with
limited
resources?
• How
will
we
design,
develop,
test
and
cer8fy
a
Human
space
transporta8on
system
with
limited
budgets
and
tes8ng
capabili8es?](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/11450160-120206143029-phpapp01/85/ARCtek_Charts_Post_ETu-8-320.jpg)
