The Marshall Center is one of NASA's largest field installations, managing a broad spectrum of human spaceflight, science and technology development missions. Named to his current position in February 2015, Dr. Bookout is responsible for procurement of the Avionics Box controller for dispensing secondary payloads on the first SLS mission. The management of this task includes integration and project analysis to understand the overall multi-phase mission requirements. Dr. Bookout has held several positions in various NASA offices for over a decade, including Manager of Space Act Agreements and Manager on the Deep Space Habitat Project. He began his career with NASA in 1990 as an Aerospace Research Engineer, Payload Dynamics and Loads Branch. While at NASA, Dr. Bookout has received numerous awards and industry honors in recognition of his work, and has published many papers and technical reports to support and highlight his work. His education includes a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering in August 1986, from Tennessee Technological University; a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering in June 1988, also from Tennessee Technological University; a Master of Science in Engineering Science and Mechanics in December 1994, from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville; and a Doctor of Philosophy in Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering in May 2008, from the University of Alabama in Huntsville; A native of Etowah, Tennessee, Dr. Bookout and his family live in Huntsville, Alabama. NASA’s Science on Small Satellites and Design Concepts for a Deep Space Habitat NASA is performing science in space using smaller satellites called CubSats. The first launch of NASA’s new rocket will enable thirteen small satellites to go further into space than before to perform different types of science from monitoring the rocket to biological experiments. These satellite missions will be discussed along with how NASA will be deploying them and the overall mission goal of the first launch of NASA’s new rocket. One of the main reasons for NASA’s new rocket is to provide the capability to expand human presence into space. For these extended missions in deep space, a new habitat will have to be built. The design of a habitat for deep space will have new challenges to protect the crew, store food, and etc from the harsh conditions beyond the Low Earth Orbit. The design will also have to provide an environment for the mental and emotional stability of the crew for long durations in space. Low fidelity mockups of deep space habitat concepts were developed and evaluated for human factor criteria. The development of the mockups will be discussed along with the reasons why that design was not chosen.

Arnaldi et al.: Human Behavior During Spaceflight - Evidence From an Analog Environment Introduction Four years after the launch of Sputnik, the world’s first artificial satellite, Yuri Gagarin became the first human to reach space (National Aeronautics and Space Administration [NASA], 2011a). The United States soon followed on the path of manned space exploration with Project Mercury. Although this program began with suborbital flights, manned spacecraft were subsequently launched into orbit around the Earth (NASA, 2012). With President Kennedy setting the goal of landing a man on the moon, NASA focused on short-duration orbital flights as a stepping-stone to lunar missions.

    IN THIS ISSUE: EDITOR’S NOTE EDITOR’S CHOICE NATIONAL NEWS STATE NEWS Dear Wetlanders, WETLAND SCIENCE The news stories over the past month have been overwhelming focused on the new NEWS Administration and political appointments. In my visits and phone conversations with RESOURCES & various federal, state, and local government staff, the one thing folks are unanimous PUBLICATIONS about is that we really just don’t know what to expect. So for now, we play a game of wait and see while internally strategizing new ways to continue moving our various POTPOURRI missions forward. CALENDAR OF EVENTS I personally predict a flurry of lawsuits over the next few years as we are experiencing a INDEX level of divisiveness in this country that we have not seen in several decades. Wetland regulations and jurisdictional determinations have a long history of being contested in the legal system – and I expect we’ll see new challenges on many fronts to existing policies as well as new ones such as the reissued Section 404 Nationwide Permits just To view the January released by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (see story in Editor’s Choice). issue of Wetland Breaking News as well as In the Editor’s Choice section this month, I have included a couple of stories regarding past issues on our U.S. Supreme Court cases.

  • Forging a New Path
    FORGING A NEW PATH, SWEET BRIAR TURNS TO THE FUTURE Dear Sweet Briar Alumnae, Throughout this spring semester, distinguished women musicians, writers and policy makers have streamed to the campus, in a series dubbed “At the Invitation of the President.” As you will read in this issue, the series started in January with a remarkable all-women ensemble of scholar-performers dedicated to excavating little-known string trios from the 17th and 18th century, and it ended the semester with a lecture by Bettina Ring, the secretary of agriculture and forestry for the Commonwealth. Sweet Briar was a working farm for most of its history, a fact that does not escape the secretary, both as an important legacy we share and cherish, but also as a resurgent possibility for the future — for Sweet Briar and Central Virginia. Through this series, one learns stunning things about women who shape history. A gradu- ate of Sweet Briar, Delia Taylor Sinkov ’34 was a top code breaker who supervised a group of women who worked silently — under an “omerta” never to be betrayed in one’s lifetime — to break the Japanese navy and army codes and eventually to help win the Battle of Midway. Ultimately, the number of code breakers surpassed 10,000. While America is a country that loves and shines light on its heroes, women have often stayed in the shadow of that gleaming light; they are history’s greatest omission. “Do you like doing the crossword puzzle?” Navy recruiters would ask the potential code breakers. “And are you engaged to be married?” If the answer to the former was a “yes” and to the lat- ter a “no,” then the women were recruited to the first wave of large-scale intelligence work upon which the nation would embark.

  • NASA's SPACE EXPLORATION PLANNING: the ASTEROID
    65th International Astronautical Congress, Toronto, Canada, Copyright 2014 by the International Astronautical Federation. All rights reserved. NASA’s SPACE EXPLORATION PLANNING: THE ASTEROID MISSION AND THE STEP-WISE PATH TO MARS Kathleen C. Laurini NASA, Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX, USA, [email protected] Michele M. Gates NASA, Headquarters, Washington, DC, USA, [email protected] Within the U.S. space policy framework, NASA continues to advance its space exploration programs and plans to remain a world leader and valuable partner in space exploration. NASA’s programs reflect the importance of human space exploration in the U.S. by focusing on the foundational capabilities and technologies which will ensure government investments continue to drive innovation and enable exciting missions as part of a step-wise path to Mars. NASA is focusing on developing these initial capabilities while collaboratively working with international partners to define a technically feasible and programmatically implementable strategy for deep space exploration. This paper summarizes this work and how NASA’s approach to capability development enables a step-wise path to human exploration of Mars, with missions along the way providing the opportunity to infuse new technologies, advance capabilities, learn to manage the risks of operations in deep space while using the presence of the crew to explore, discover and inspire. NASA is laying the groundwork for the partnerships necessary to explore beyond low-Earth orbit (LEO). In addition to the International Space Station enabling important learning related to long duration mission human health and performance, the heavy lift launcher Space Launch System (SLS) and the Orion crew vehicle are foundational capabilities under development for human missions beyond LEO.
