Review of Goals and Plans for NASA's Space and Earth Sciences PDF
by National Research Council, Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences, Space Studies Board, Panel on Review of NASA Science Strategy Roadmaps
Description
Both the Presidents commission on how to implement the Presidents space exploration initiative and Congress asked the NRC undertake an assessment and review of the science proposed to be carried out under the initiative. An initial response to that request was the NRC February 2005 report, Science in NASAs Vision for Space Exploration. While that reports preparation, NASA created capabilities and strategy roadmapping efforts which became the object of the next phase of the NRC review. The new NASA administrator modified that NASA activity resulting in changes in the NRC review effort. This report provides a review of six science strategy roadmaps: robotic and human exploration of Mars; solar system exploration; universe exploration; search for earth-like planets; earth science and applications from space; and sun-earth system connection. In addition, an assessment of cross-cutting and integration issues is presented.
