ASTE 527 Space Exploration Architectures Concept Synthesis Studio Final Team Concept Architecture Presentations Return To The Moon: Looking Glass 204 Seaver Science Library Auditorium SSL150 Monday December 15th, 2008, 6.00-9.30pm Astronautics and Space Technology Division Viterbi School of Engineering University of Southern California
ASTE527 Space Concepts Studio • 3 Unit Graduate Elective • Interdisciplinary participants • Create original concepts – pre-engineering • Guest lecturers – topics and review • Individual concept at midterm • Team Project at Finals Looking Glass 204 Overview
Project Background • NASA plans to return people to the Moon by 2020 • Mars Forward Vision • International Cooperation • Contracts have been issued to build vehicles and systems to execute this program • We are embarked on crewed missions beyond Earth Orbit • It will cost US taxpayers about $150 billion in the next decade • Robotic buildup philosophy Looking Glass 204 Overview
USC Team Project Background • Using NASA plans : • What can we do besides executing Mars Forward Vision ? • Tasked to enhance NASA Vision with “permanent assets” which can benefit all humanity • Do it in the short term – 2015-2025 • Robots + Crew philosophy Looking Glass 204 Overview
Crew Safety First Philosophy Establish a sturdy, permanent Earth-Moon communications link Establish a permanent settlement Establish Suite of Lunar Observatories Geology and Astrobiology Traverse Live Off the Land Inspire a new generation - Outreach Specific Goals Looking Glass 204 Overview
