Astrophysicia est omnis in Partes Tres Exoplanet Exploration Program (Prog. Sci., Doug Hudgins) “Are we alone?” Cosmic Origins Program (Prog. Sci. Eric Smith) “How did we get here?” Physics of the Cosmos Program (Prog. Sci. Michael Salamon) “How does the Universe work?” Astrophysics Explorers Program (Prog. Sci. Hashima Hasan) Astrophysics Research Program (Prog. Sci. Wilt Sanders) Impact Well-defined meaning to “Program” at NASA (7120.5D) (Most) projects exist within Programs: Example: Beyond Einstein Program is no longer a Program; it is a mission suite residing in the PCOS program. Some flexibility to move funds within a Program.

Program Scientist: HQ oversight of science performance of mission/program of missions Program Executive: HQ oversight of project management/program of missions Program Office: Located in designated Center for Program management Project Scientist: Center scientific oversight of mission, responsible for science success Project Manager: Center management, responsible for success of the mission.
