Universities Space Research Association

USRA is a private, nonprofit corporation founded in 1969, at NASA’s request. We run programs allowing the 100+ member universities to cooperate effectively with one another, with the government, and with other organizations to further advance space science and technology, and to promote education in these areas. Since 2012 we have a quantum technologies effort (https://riacs.usra.edu/quantum/) specialized in quantum computing theory, algorithms and benchmarking techniques. Visit website
