National Security Space Enterprise Engineering

This conference features the work of authors from: Georgia Tech's Space Systems Design Lab, Aerospace Systems Design Lab, School of Aerospace Engineering, Georgia Tech Research Institute; NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Marshall Space Flight Center, Goddard Space Flight Center, Langley Research Center; and other aerospace industry and academic institutionsSpace provides critical capabilities for all sectors of our society. Today's world depends on space capabilities for weather and climate monitoring, remote sensing, scientific investigation and commercial and financial transactions. Defense and intelligence decision makers depend on our space programs for reconnaissance, intelligence, surveillance, warning, communications, global positioning and navigation. There is value to addressing national security space from an enterprise perspective. We can be more effective and efficient by appropriate enterprise engineering. An enterprise consists of people, processes, and technology interacting with each other and their environment to achieve goals. The mission of the National Security Space Office is to Integrate and coordinate defense and intelligence space activities to achieve unity of effort.AIAA Space Systems Technical Committee ; AIAA Space Transportation Systems Technical Committee ; Space Technology Advanced Research Cente
