Book excerpt: "Assured Access: A History of the United States Air Force Space Launch Enterprise, 1945-2020 is a study of more than six decades of Air Force launch support for the nation's military, intelligence, and civilian space communities. From their inception as refurbished ballistic missiles, Air Force boosters have launched national security space payloads for the Defense Department (DOD) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), as well as for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and commercial and other civilian elements. Throughout this period, Air Force launch strategy has been to provide assured access to space by means of affordable, reliable, and responsive launch in order to guarantee assured access to space"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And so to keep a lot of those former Soviet, now Russian, engineers working, there was this extraordinarily successful program of the Nunn-Lugar effort to go in to gather up those nuclear weapons and simultaneously to support the Russian aerospace industry and to buy this incredible engine, the RD-180. And so today, those engines play a significant role in meeting our Nation's launch requirements. We have already launched four missions this year alone using that engine. And so now it is time that we are going to have to consider an alternative. Several of us in the Armed Services Committee put $100 million into the defense authorization bill to get that process started in this coming fiscal year. We want to make sure that the taxpayer money is well spent, and so it is important that we consider the launch needs with the goal in mind that we want assured access to space. And this is, obviously, not going to just affect the Department of Defense, although the National security activities are paramount. It clearly is going to involve commercial space activities as well and the question of preserving an industrial base. And so the two committees represented at this dais have asked officials from DOD and NASA, along with many others, to come and discuss this issue of U.S. assured access to space. NASA has no stated need for a new engine and is already building its own space launch system. However, NASA obviously has extensive experience in building launch systems and is getting great experience in public/private partnerships. And so we are going to hear from all of these people.

This book was released on 2015-05-05 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the decades since the Apollo 11 launch, space technology has become vital to the United States' security, economy, and standard of living. American vehicles need reliable domestic space access for both unmanned and manned payloads. The tensions with Russia as a result of the Ukraine crisis have forced us to rethink part of the relationships that have built up, despite decades of cooperation. In the midst of the Cold War, an American spacecraft and a Soviet spacecraft rendezvoused, docked, and the crews lived together for 9 days in space. When the Cold War ended, we were rightly concerned that weapons and technology were going to get into the wrong hands. To keep a lot of those former Soviet engineers working, there was an extraordinarily successful program of the Nunn-Lugar effort to go in to gather up those nuclear weapons and simultaneously to support the Russian aerospace industry, and to buy the RD-180 engine. Today, those engines play a significant role in meeting our Nation's launch requirements. Now it is time that we have to consider an alternative.

This book was released on 2007-01-14 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rocket and air-breathing propulsion systems are the foundation on which planning for future aerospace systems rests. A Review of United States Air Force and Department of Defense Aerospace Propulsion Needs assesses the existing technical base in these areas and examines the future Air Force capabilities the base will be expected to support. This report also defines gaps and recommends where future warfighter capabilities not yet fully defined could be met by current science and technology development plans.
Download or read book National Security Space Launch Report written by Forrest McCartney and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1994, the National Space Transportation Policy laid the framework for appropriate government agencies to maintain strong launch systems and infrastructure while modernizing space transportation capabilities and encouraging cost reductions. More than a decade later, through combined Department of Defense (DoD) and industrial investment, the two Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) families of U.S. rockets (Atlas V and Delta IV) have proved to be maturing, reliable state-of-the-art technologies. In 2004, Congress directed the Secretary of Defense to establish a panel of experts with extensive space launch and operations background to address the future National Security Space launch requirements and the means of meeting those requirements. DoD selected RAND to facilitate and support this panel in its deliberations between May 2005 and May 2006. This report analyzes the National Security Space (NSS) Launch Requirements Panel's major findings and recommendations. In short, the Panel concludes that, because basic rocketry principles, use of chemically derived thrust, and multiple expendable stages seem certain to remain the design of choice for operational space launch vehicles, the EELV can satisfy all known and projected NSS requirements through 2020.
