## Resource

NASA is developing a powerful new space processor designed to survive the brutal conditions of deep space while delivering computing speeds hundreds of times faster than current spacecraft technology. Known as the High Performance Spaceflight Computing system, the chip could allow future missions to the Moon and Mars to make scientific decisions autonomously using onboard AI. Built to withstand intense radiation and extreme temperatures, the technology may not only transform robotic and crewed exploration, but also influence next-generation aviation and automotive systems here on Earth.
