NASA is seeking new None-destructive Evaluation (NDE) tools for astronauts to use in a habitat or in the space environment. This proposed analyzer can be used for the following in-space NDE tests for the NASA applications: Inspection of additively manufactured parts in space. Detection of commonly known defects in materials. Analysis of regolith/drill core samples through X-ray Diffraction (XRD), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), and X-ray imaging. This X-ray analyzer technology with XRD, XRF and X-ray imaging brings a totally new Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) tool for a variety of industrious applications, which include the fast-growing Additive Manufacturing (AM) in the aerospace industry, the automotive industry, consumer products, healthcare, government and defense etc.
