Presentations to the ASEB and SSB May 12-15, 2009
These are the Powerpoint presentations to the National Research Council’s Space Studies Board (SSB) and Aeronautics and Space Engineering Board (ASEB) meetings in May 2009. The meetings of the two Boards were organized to overlap so there could be one joint meeting day when they could receive briefings on and discuss topics of mutual interest. ASEB met May 12-13, and SSB met May 13-15, with the 13th as the joint day. Only those presentations related to space activities are provided below. ASEB also heard from Jaiwon Shin, Associate Administrator of NASA’s Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate, and Vicki Cox, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Senior Vice President for NextGen and Operations Planning Services. Those presentations may be available by contacting ASEB at aseb@nas.edu.
