There is growing capability in the field of {\textquotedblleft}Big Data{\textquotedblright} and {\textquotedblleft}Data Analytics{\textquotedblright} which Mass Properties Engineers might like to take advantage of. This paper utilizes an implementation of the IBM Knowledge Analytics and Watson search capabilities to explore a corpus of material developed primarily with the interests of Mass Properties Engineers and vehicle concept developers at its forefront. The full collection of SAWE Technical Papers from 1939 thru 2015 is a major portion of the knowledge content. Additional aerospace vehicle design information includes metadata from AIAA (American Institute for Aeronautics and Astronautics), and INCOSE (International Council on Systems Engineering) as well as author provided personal search material. This data is processed with respect to certain expected content, data taxonomies and key words to become the core data in NASA Langley Research Center{\textquoteright}s {\textquotedblleft}Vehicle Analysis Analytics{\textquotedblright}, IBM Watson Content. Processed data becomes the corpus of information which is interrogated to provide examples of finding data for mass regression analysis, technology impacts on MPE, mass properties control, standards, and other aspects of interest.
