The AHAD contains materials properties data on 298 alloys, with nearly 100,000 data curves and 19,329 pages. Produced by the by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) at Purdue University.

This is the web-based version of the highly respected and widely used Aerospace Structural Metals Handbook (ASMH) developed by Air Force and NASA. The ASMD has quickly become the industry benchmark for materials properties of high strength, lightweight alloys. It now contains more than 93,600 data curves and over 17,300 pages of critically evaluated information on over 254 alloys used in the aerospace and other industries. Produced by by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) at Purdue University.

The Planetary Science Budget Dataset integrates the spending history, by year, of every NASA planetary science mission and related activities. This integrated, annualized dataset enables improved adjustments for inflation and allows direct comparisons between past and current planetary exploration efforts within the United States. It also enables analysis of shifting national priorities in space exploration, spending by destination, roles of major programs, research, launch costs, and more.

The dataset is hosted as a Google Spreadsheet that can be viewed and downloaded in a variety of formats by anyone, for free.

More than 8,000 engineering and technology electronic books, However, beware of the publication date. Sometimes this publisher will put the date the book becomes electronic as the publication date, though the print version, thus content, was published several years ago.
