Report of the Defense Science Board Task Force on National Aero-Space Plane (Nasp) Program
Author: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781722717780
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
Six years ago, the Defense Science Board (DSB) initiated a review of the concept, technical basis, program content, and missions of the National Aerospace Plane (NASP) program. The report was completed in Sep. 1988, and the recommendations contributed to strengthening the technical efforts in the NASP program. Since then, substantial technological progress has been made in the technology development phase (Phase 2) of the program. Phase 2 of the program is currently scheduled to end in late Fiscal Year 1993, with a decision whether to proceed to the experimental flight vehicle phase (Phase 3) to be made at that time. This decision will be a very significant one for the Department of Defense (DoD) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). In February of this year, the DSB was chartered to revisit the NASP program to assess the degree to which the many technical challenges of the program have been resolved, or are likely to be resolved by the end of Phase 2. Unspecified Center...

Pages : 18
Book Description
"This paper outlines key issues raised by the National AeroSpace Plane Program (NASP) and suggests policy options to be examined further. The need for routine space access and U.S. aeronautical leadership makes NASP a national priority. The costs and uncertainties of NASP, however, necessitate reducing its risks. The author raises the following points: (1) the rate of technical progress, cost projections, and potential applications of NASP technology are uncertain; (2) NASP development costs and possible increases may force tradeoffs with other research and development in subsonic aircraft and launch vehicle technology; and (3) the 1988-1989 fiscal year budget will require decisions on major funding increases for flying "technology demonstrators." The author suggests some policy options to be examined: (1) maintain NASP research efforts, but deemphasize operational applications; (2) hedge NASP research by expanding efforts in other space and aeronautical transport programs; and (3) increase National Aeronautics and Space Administration responsibility for NASP work and ease classification restrictions."--Rand abstracts.
