2 2 Scientific Laboratory Technology Test Bed Orbiting Outpost Galactic Observatory New Approach: CASIS Sustain Human Health and Performance Ensure Systems Readiness Validate Operational Procedures Sustain Human Health and Performance Ensure Systems Readiness Validate Operational Procedures Cornerstone of Exploration: The International Space Station

3 International Space Station: Research and Technology Applications & Demo Testbed 3 ISS Research and Developmental Technologies: Closed-loop life support Advanced monitoring & control In- space assembly Maintainability supportability and logistics Solar panels and batteries EVA technologies Automated systems Exercise systems Medical care Food systems Improving Life Support: 70-80% water and air recycling on ISS Improving Zero-G Health: Bone loss prevention through exercise and space medicine Observing Planet Earth: Documenting global change and geographic events; aiding in disaster relief 1,200 experiments supporting 1,600 scientists in 63 counties Leveraging a Materials Testbed: Improving satellite component development and spacecraft design Teaching 30+ million students from ISS: Students participate in downlinks and interactive experiments with ISS astronauts

4 A History of Collaboration and Cooperation: ISS as a Stepping-Stone for Deep-Space Exploration 4 International Cooperation = Vital

5 International Space Exploration Coordination Group: ISECG Terms of Reference Work collectively in a non-binding, consensus-driven manner toward advancing the Global Exploration Strategy –Provide a forum for discussion of interests, objectives and plans –Provide a forum for development of conceptual products –Enable the multilateral or bilateral partnerships necessary to accomplish complex exploration missions –Promote interest and engagement in space exploration among citizens and society ISECG operating principles –Open and inclusive, flexible and evolutionary, effective, mutual interest ISECG chairmanship rotates approximately once per year 5

6 The ISECG Global Exploration Roadmap  The first iteration of the Global Exploration Roadmap (GER) was released by ISECG in September 2011  Second iteration planned end 2012/early 2013  The GER reflects the international effort to collaboratively define technically feasible and programmatically implementable exploration mission scenarios with the common goal of humans on the surface of Mars  Asteroid Next, Moon Next  GER serves as a non-binding reference for agencies to inform near-term decisions related to exploration preparatory activities 6
