I need to pass on a technical proposal relating to craft mission telecommunications (telemetry reception).

This assumes that you know better than they themselves for what can be done with their own equipment!

Then again, you can use language that is more polite and "ask" them what is possible...


The nature of the proposal does not need traditional peer review as it is a distributed computing project.

Very wrong. If you want to have any sort of "cooperation", then YOU MUST gain that cooperation. You can offer lots of money. Or you could try _persuading_ people that you do indeed have a good well thought out idea that is backed up by hard research showing that it should all work.


I would like to pass the same proposal on to the (North American branch of the) European Space Agency (ESA), as NASA may be totally inept or downright unhelpful when it comes to implementing the proposal.

That is a bad attitude for you to take. How do you know that you know better than NASA? Do you have greater knowledge?

Wherever you try, you will have similar official hurdles to overcome before you get any time with anyone important. Sorry, but they cannot waste their time with you without good reason.


NASA's monopoly on space research vanished long ago -- and NASA and its "hanger ons" may lack either the intellect or will power to implement this proposal.

Please explain.


Sorry, but your proposals and approach look to be very immature. If you are indeed serious about your ideas, then your best option at the moment is to try some peer review here. If you get past us, then you should have stronger arguments for pushing further.

Or have you some strange (or inept) part of your scheme that you are trying to hide?


(Note that NASA and ESA officials will have far less patience with you than the people here on this newsgroup.)

Martin
