10. 10 ASTWG Charter Team  Solicited volunteers at Kick-Off meeting to form Charter Development Team  Team consisted of approx. 2 dozen members from NASA, industry, academia, States, etc.  Met via telecon in August/September  Initially modeled after Range Commanders Council Operations & Policy document  Draft Charter distributed along with ASTWG 2 meeting announcement materials  No comments received!

11. 11 ASTWG Charter - Vision VISION STATEMENT: As aerospace leaders from government, industry and academia, we will promote the development of Advanced Spaceports that will facilitate the safe, cost-effective and successful operation of existing and future generations of space transportation systems to serve America’s space access needs into the future.

12. 12 ASTWG Charter - Mission  The development of Advanced Spaceport Technologies is essential to enable the safer, lower-cost access to space that will make future spaceports technically and economically viable. In support of this goal, the ASTWG group will:  Provide a forum for federal and state government agencies, industry, and academia to work together to develop a national vision for spaceport development;  Provide a mechanism for the identification, prioritization, and recommendation of spaceport technologies to develop;  In addition to technology development, envisioning of multiple enabling activities such as master planning, business development, education/outreach that would be important to the successful development of a commercial spaceport;

13. 13 ASTWG Charter – Mission (cont.)  Develop an understanding of federal and state policies and regulations that impact spaceport development and influence the establishment or revisions of these policies; and,  Promote awareness of current and planned initiatives in the stakeholder community to foster collaboration, identify business and technology gaps, and minimize unnecessary duplication of development effort

14. 14 ASTWG Charter - Goals The primary goals of ASTWG are:  Increase future market opportunities by lowering the cost of access to space  Concurrently develop Spaceport technologies with vehicle development  A synergistic approach to reducing operations costs  Improve the safety and reliability associated with space access operations  Respond to space access community needs and requirements  Leveraging of available Spaceport development resources nationwide  Become a recognized source of Spaceport technology information

15. 15 ASTWG Charter - Objectives The Advanced Spaceport Technology Working Group was organized to pursue and promote Spaceport development activities that will lead to a reduction in the overall cost of access to space. The scope of the Advanced Spaceport Technology Working Group is to: a.develop a national spaceport vision; b.develop a national spaceport architecture that encompasses all current and future spaceports, planned and proposed launch vehicles, and the mission control systems necessary to conduct space flight from anywhere in the nation; c.develop roadmaps, including near-, mid-, and far-term technology and enabling activities, to achievement of the future spaceport vision; d.develop a prioritized list of recommended spaceport technologies for development and testing;

16. 16 ASTWG Charter – Objectives (cont.) e.develop a list of enabling activities that are important to the development of a commercial spaceport; f.develop an inventory of current policies and regulations that impact spaceport development with recommendation for revisions necessitated by technology and business developments; g.identify potential research opportunities for NASA Space Grant and EPSCoR organizations and other universities; h.develop an inventory of current spaceport research, development, and implementation activities; i.advance common Spaceport matters in an organized forum; j.exchange information and foster cooperation among space access community; k.promote and advocate the development of Spaceports on national, regional and local levels and communicate the ideas, recommendations and analyses arising from the preceding objectives.

21. ASTWG Sub-Group Break-Out Sessions Randy Eastman ASTWG Chair

22. 22 Sub-Group Break-Out Sessions  Session A: 1:00 – 3:00 1.Spaceport Visions and ArchitecturesAtlas Room Facilitator: Phil Weber 2.Commerce and Business DevelopmentJuno Room Facilitator: Gale Allen 3.Education and OutreachJupiter Room Facilitator: Michael Bell  Session B: 3:00 – 5:00 1.Technical Thrust AreasAtlas Room Facilitators: Tim Barth, Robert Johnson 2.Safety & Environmental IssuesJupiter Room Facilitators: Bob Gerron, Mario Busacca 3.Policy IssuesJuno Room Facilitator: Joel Wells

23. 23 Sub-Group Break-Out Sessions  ASTWG members can serve on multiple sub-groups  For break-out sessions, select sub-group that you are most interested in  Master Planning / Environmental Sub-Group has been divided into: Spaceport Visions and Architectures Safety & Environmental Issues  Use these sessions as the formal “kick-off” of sub-group activities  Determine NASA/KSC and non-NASA/KSC co-leads KSC representatives have been assigned to facilitate initial sub- group activities  Develop description of sub-group function for ASTWG Charter Idea generation, benchmarking, best practices, lessons learned, communications, interdependencies, leveraging, etc.  Define sub-group goals and objectives  Meeting logistics  Keep sub-group minutes

24. 24 Sub-Group Break-Out Sessions  Report back to general ASTWG tomorrow morning (15 minutes per sub- group)  Co-leads NASA/KSC & Non-NASA/KSC  Function/description of activities  Issues/concerns  Interdependencies with other sub-groups  Next meeting  Etc.
