I used to work with some of those board members at JPL! DTN is cool stuff. We had a few applications built up for distributed "delay aware" computing so that you could, at the network/application boundary, farm out jobs for e.g., an orbiting compute cluster coming over the horizon. Really fun times. | ||

And there are lots of open implementations to play with! | ||

It's also noteworthy that DTN can be used on Earth too, especially in remote places with poor/unreliable data connections. There's some interesting literature about those applications, which was my first approach to DTN when I started working with it. | ||
