4 AIAA Public Policy Staff 22 October 2014 Fall AIAA Public Policy Meeting Charleston, SC

5 Introducing Sean Callahan Sean Callahan will join AIAA’s team as a Manager of Public Policy and Government Relations on 10 November 2014. For the past four years, Sean has served as a senior advisor on defense and transportation policy to Rep. Colleen Hanabusa (D-HI), particularly her work on the House Armed Services Committee. 5 Before joining Hanabusa’s staff, Sean spent several years as a logistics and procurement manager for Halliburton and for Kellogg, Brown, and Root supporting defense and infrastructure projects in Africa and the Middle East. Born in Fort Knox, KY, to a career military officer, Sean holds a BA in economics and political science from the University of Hawaii, and will obtain a MA in international affairs from American University in December.

6 Duane Hyland, Media Relations Duane long supported the Public Policy  Grassroots and Education and Workforce portfolios.  He has been Mr. CVD Transitioning to full-time Media Relations Sean will take on  Primary support of Grassroots and Education & Workforce SC  Guide CVD Strategy and Key Issue Development AIAA Event Planner and Protocol Project Coordinator will assist with CVD logistics 6

7 Rodger Williams, Managing Director, Strategic Outreach Oversee Enterprise Communications, Aerospace America, Public Policy, and content curation strategies (i.e., new book acquisition, virtual content development, etc.) 7

8 Key Issue Development LONG-TERM INVESTMENT IN TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT AND TRANSITION ASSURING THE VIABILITY OF THE U.S. AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE INDUSTRIAL BASE DEVELOPING A SEAMLESS NATIONAL CYBERSECURITY POLICY ACCESS FOR UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES IN THE NATIONAL AEROSPACE SYSTEM ENSURING A ROBUST U.S. HUMAN SPACEFLIGHT PROGRAM ADDRESS THE GROWING THREAT OF ORBITAL DEBRIS BUILDING OUR COMPETITIVE FOUNDATION: SUPPORTING K-12 STEM EDUCATION Currently: High # Stand Alone Varying Maturity Actionable? Local? Going To: Streamlined Count Aligned to “Themes” Measurable State/Local tie-in New Format Workforce Industrial Base Cybersecurity Space National Security Aeronautics Career & Workforce

9 Key Issues Timeline- 2015 Members question Key Issues slate yet rarely participate in process… Reality Check… Review SC inputs for ‘thread’ alignments – TODAY! Reduce topics under each “thread” – TODAY Assign “Key Author” to lead paper dev – TODAY Support authors engaged – 10/27 Draft of KIs to PPC Ex Comm – 11/7 PPC blessed, sent to AIAA staff – 11/14 AIAA formatting & editting done – 11/21 BoD vote – Sci Tech, January 2015

10 CVD Key Issues – Threads (Industrial Base 1 of 2) Industrial Base Risk aversion. Use discussion from P&E sessions for input. (Aero) Reauthorization of Export/Import bank. Impact to industrial base. * (Aero) Sequestration, impact of shutdown, Congress inactivity and negative impact on procurement and industry. Time for procurement. Pressures of sequestration and squeezing of budget. Many acquisition people with no industry experience so interactions very foreign. Also with Administration coming to an end, people leaving. (Aero) Remove Commercial Space Transportation from ITAR list (should be coming from TAC. AIAA successful in having satellites removed from list and should do the same for commercial space transportation. (Space) Keeping pace with new and innovative private space activities. As innovative private space activities emerge, are U.S. laws and regulations keeping up to both support entrepreneurship and meet our international obligations? (Space) Complete Public/Private Human Earth-Orbit Access Programs in a Timely Manner. End reliance on Russian transportation to low-Earth orbit by providing proper investment (including propulsion) in the PPP crew vehicle development programs, which will help grow the commercial space industry. (Space & TAC) Human spaceflight direction/priorities: Generate a credible, long-term human space exploration strategy with specific, achievable goals (Space) *Rodger to circle back with Steve on AIAA position. Probably split cross membership – producers for it, operations not. 10

11 CVD Key Issues – Threads (Industrial Base 2 of 2) Industrial Base Secure supply chain. Not only cyber related (outsourcing of key components that are access points), but overall readiness and reliability of NS hardware. (NS) Increase the NASA Budget - Not only full funding for the commercial crew and cargo concepts, but need to push for expanded funding to implement with maximum speed. Expand the funding for the NASA Office of Space Technology. All of this with added funding reducing funds from other areas. More support of the private space industry, specifically public-private partnerships which will encourage commercial spaceflight. Increase advanced propulsion funding (TAC) 11

12 CVD Key Issues – Threads (Cybersecurity) Cybersecurity Security of national transportation system – NextGen. Civil/commercial side airlines will have to worry about how things network – operations, health maintenance networks (wireless). Ret. Gen Ed Bolton is new Vicki Cox at FAA. We ought to reach out to him. (Rodger will do so) (Aero) Verification/validation of cyber systems – a/c are flying networks. R&D issue – Networking Information Tech R&D – interagency organization that reports to OSTP (NITRD). Physical security. (Aero) Replacing black boxes with real time telemetry (Malasia flight). (Aero) Protecting Space Assets and Providing Space Situational Awareness: Provide for protection of existing space assets from disabling or interference/jamming, particularly Comsats and GPS satellites (Space) Protect IP – quite easy for criminals to attack retail businesses and steal PII. A&D should realize that nation states are attacking aerospace corporations and stealing Intellectual Property. (NS) Aviation safety – even congress people can understand that airplanes and the air traffic control system can be vulnerable, with bad consequences. (NS) Cyber defense for spacecraft – What is a realistic and achievable approach? (NS) 12

13 CVD Key Issues – Threads (Workforce) Workforce Work force reliance on computational tools and less on real testing and so that adds risk. (Aero) Next Generation IPA – inter-government personnel agreements. University/Govt/Industry TDY exchange. Allow more rotation from industry to government, etc. Should we learn more about this and support it? Across whole national security community. Supported at OSTP. Reach out to Dr. Reed Skaggs, IPA from Army Research Lab to OSTP. Robie will initiate contact. (Aero) A strong government human space flight program beyond Earth orbit inspires young people to join the scientific and technical workforce. The expanding human space flight industry is enabling the transport of humans, scientific instruments, and cargo to low Earth orbit, further enhancing educational, workforce, and commercial opportunities. (Space) Focused effort on integrating ‘cyber warriors’ (CS, Info Security, etc) into A&D mainstream jobs. (NS) Expand ‘Cyber Patriot’ type applications…Boeing effort working with schools on combining UAV & cyber into a DBF type activity. (NS) Recommend that the Government “appoint administrators at both the state and national levels to monitor progress and establish baselines for assessing current and developing future programs.“ Because based on experience, STEM program reviews consistently confirm that programs benefit from data-based assessment processes.(TAC) 13

14 CVD Key Issues – Orphans Near Earth Objects (NEO) - The AIAA should encourage our government to be more active and aggressive in programs/projects/products that enhance our ability to locate, monitor and possibly to take action against any threatening NEOs. Address Legal barriers to Space Colonization 14

15 PPC/Forum Engagement PPC members identified, but engagement seems ‘spotty’ at best CMAC, where some PPC members reside, not being engaged PPC KI’s not transitioning to major forum presence 15

16 PPC Composition Size of roster…70+ ‘members’ ?!? Sub-committee structure best for supporting ‘themes’ approach? Corp Member en gagement?  PPC engages CMC, but 2-way communication? Cyber working group…connected with PPC. Other similar groups in the institute, around PPC related topics? Could lead to mixed messages 16
