GOAL:

Find a open source networking protocol that is already widely deployed and in use by NASA.

Make IPFS compatible with it.

IPFS

https://ipfs.io

InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a protocol and network designed to create a content-addressable, peer-to-peer method of storing and sharing hypermedia in a distributed file system. IPFS was initially designed by Juan Benet, and is now an open-source project developed with help from the community.

It looks like the code to interface new network protocols is located in:

ION-DTN

https://sourceforge.net/projects/ion-dtn/

The Interplanetary Overlay Network (ION) software distribution is an implementation of Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) architecture, as described in Internet RFC 4838, that is intended to be usable in embedded environments including spacecraft flight computers.
