Beskrivelse
As civil space policies and programs have evolved, the geopolitical environment has changed dramatically. Although the U.S. space program was originally driven in large part by competition with the Soviet Union, the nation now finds itself in a post-Cold War world in which many nations have established, or are aspiring to develop, independent space capabilities. Furthermore discoveries from developments in the first 50 years of the space age have led to an explosion of scientific and engineering knowledge and practical applications of space technology. The private sector has also been developing, fielding, and expanding the commercial use of space-based technology and systems.Recognizing the new national and international context for space activities, America's Future in Space is meant to advise the nation on key goals and critical issues in 21st century U.S. civil space policy.Table of ContentsFront MatterSummary1 From Sputnik and Apollo to Today's Globalized Environment2 Goals for U.S. Civil Space Activities3 Foundational Elements4 RecommendationsAppendixesAppendix A: Committee Member and Staff BiographiesAppendix B: Statement of TaskAppendix C: Meeting AgendasAppendix D: Committee Outreach and Public Responses
