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! https://github.com/nasa/HDTN https://github.com/nasa/HDTN https://github.com/nasa-jpl/ION-DTN https://github.com/nasa-jpl/ION-DTN https://gitlab.com/d3tn/ud3tn https://gitlab.com/d3tn/ud3tn https://upcn.eu/ https://upcn.eu/

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.
