terabytes of scientific data for "Black Holes: The Other Side of Infinity", a digital dome program on black holes. Private business partners Referred to as the Industrial Partners program when it began in 1986, NCSA's collaboration with major corporations ensured that its expertise and emerging technologies would be relevant to major challenges outside of the academic world, as those challenges arose. Business partners had no control over research or the disposition of its results, but they were well-situated to be early adopters of any benefits of the research. This program is now called NCSA Industry. Past and current business partners include: Abaqus Abbvie ACNielsen Allstate Insurance American Airlines AT&T Inc. Boeing Phantom Works Caterpillar Inc.
