Dillon Ripley Center Auditorium Smithsonian Institution 1100 Jefferson Drive S.W. Washington, D.C. September 30 - October 1, 1997 NASA History Office, NASA Headquarters Office of Policy and Plans National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution Space Policy Institute, The George Washington University Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies, Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars On October 4, 1957 the Soviet Union lofted the first artificial satellite, Sputnik 1, into Earth orbit. This 184-pound, basketball-sized sphere ushered in the era of the space race. At the height of the Cold War and several months into the International Geophysical Year, the Soviet Union had beaten the United States into space, a symbolically significant achievement. In the immediate aftermath, the American public was greatly distressed and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration was created within a year. The real significance of the Sputnik I launch can be seen over the long term, however, as the race for human exploration of the Moon began in the early 1960s, global satellite communications became a reality, and new generations of scientific spacecraft began exploring the universe. The NASA Office of Policy and Plans/History Office, the National Air and Space Museum, the George Washington University Space Policy Institute, and the Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies are proud to sponsor a symposium on the impact of Sputnik. Separate panels will address Soviet and American activities prior to Sputnik, immediate ramifications of the launch in the United States and around the world, and some of the long-term consequences. The symposium will take place in the auditorium of the S. Dillon Ripley Center of the Smithsonian Institution at 1000 Jefferson Drive SW, Washington, DC. Attendance at the symposium is open to the public, but seating is limited so early registration is strongly encouraged. There is a $30 registration fee for breakfast, lunch, and refreshments.

Konstantin E. Tsiolkovsky RISING FROM A CRADLE... Soviet Public Perception of Spaceflight Before Sputnik The paper is intended to describe Russian/Soviet public perception of spaceflight in the first half of the 20th century, prior to the launch of the first satellite (1900 - 1957). The purpose of this research is to show that despite the secrecy around Soviet rocket program the public in the USSR was prepared to understand and accept the beginning of the space era. The paper will address the following subjects: • Early proponents of a spaceflight ideas in Russia and the USSR; • Descriptions of future space explorations in Russian/Soviet popular science and science fiction literature; • Knowledge and response of the general public to a possibility of a spaceflight; • Public spaceflight societies in the USSR; • Political exploitation of the spaceflight idea in the 1920s - 1950s. The author will deliberately avoid detailed description of professional rocket research organizations: GDL, MosGIRD and RNII. Although those organizations in many respects created a scientific foundation for the rocket technology in the USSR, their work is more or less known today in the West. They also worked in secrecy, thus having only a marginal impact on a public opinion. Instead, the author will concentrate on activities of the early spaceflight proponents who appealed directly to the public. Apart from the works of the spaceflight pioneer Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, the paper will provide short accounts on activities of iesser-k_aown Soviet scientists mad writers, such as: Yuri Kondratiuk, Friedreich Tsander, Yakov Perelman, Ari Schternfeld, Nikolay Rynin, Alexander Beliyaev and others. It will show how popular science and science fiction literature deeply influenced public awareness of a possibility of a spaceflight. The author will describe and demonstrate samples of such literature of the 1930s - 1950s. The paper also intend to analyze the origin and trends of how Soviet political leadership exploited spaceflight idea for political propaganda purposes. It will be shown in the paper, that such political exploitation did not start with a launch of Sputnik but goes back to the 1920s. In author's opinion, the research subject of this proposed paper is new for the US public and historians alike. The paper will be based mostly on Russian original materials. The author intends to illustrate his presentation by view-graphs with rare images of how Soviet scientists envisaged space activities before the launch of Sputnik. REPRODUCED AT GOVT. EXPENSE AsifA.

Jahrestag der Gründung des Instituts für Kosmosforschung – eine persönliche Reflexion* Deutsch von Jacqueline Myrrhe Veröffentlicht: 25. Juni 2021 Als ein Raumfahrtfan von jungen Jahren, führte ich ein handschriftliches Tagebuch über die wichtigsten Ereignisse in der Raumfahrt – eine Aufzeichnung, die mir bis heute als wertvoller Beleg der Zeitgeschichte dient. Allerdings, es gibt keinen Eintrag für den 1. April 1981, dem Gründungsdatum der Raumfahrtorganisation der Deutschen Demokratischen Republik (DDR), d. h. des Instituts für Kosmosforschung (IKF). Der Flug von Sigmund Jähn zu Saljut 6 zwei Jahre zuvor und auch die Teilnahme der DDR am Interkosmos-Programm war den meisten westlichen Beobachtern und Raumfahrtfans bekannt. Aber das war es auch schon. Denn da ist kein Tagebucheintrag für den 1. April 1981. Jahre später, bei der Recherche für das neue Buch „European-Russian cooperation in space – from de Gaulle to ExoMars“ in dem es um das Thema Raumfahrtkooperation zwischen Europa und Russland geht, bin ich hier und da durch einige flüchtige Verweise auf „das IKF” gestoßen. Ich war von der Existenz einer Raumfahrtorganisation in der DDR überrascht und noch mehr darüber, dass das IKF ein bedeutendes, eigenständiges Programm durchgeführt hatte; dass es der Bundesrepublik der 1990er ein erhebliches Erbe hinterlassen hat; dass es ein wesentlicher Baustein für die folgende europäisch- russische Zusammenarbeit war; und dass es auf mysteriöse Weise aus den historischen Aufzeichnungen verschwunden war. Für einen Historiker ist es immer wichtig, darauf zu achten, auf welche Art und Weise Geschichte im Nachhinein rekonstruiert wird.

  • Space and Satellites
    House of Commons Science and Technology Select Committee inquiry on Space and Satellites Response to the inquiry, 29 January 2016 This evidence is submitted by the Royal Academy of Engineering. As the UK’s national academy for engineering, we bring together the most successful and talented engineers from across the engineering sectors for a shared purpose: to advance and promote excellence in engineering. The views described in this response were assembled through consultation with our Fellows. These include experts in space engineering from industry and academia. Introduction 1. Since the publication of the UK Space Innovation and Growth Strategy 2014-2030, the government has picked up many of the recommendations, which has galvanised the industry. The success of the strategy is illustrated by the high annual growth figure of 7.3%1 reported in 2014. Furthermore, this is a high-productivity industry whose expansion aligns well with the objectives of the government’s Productivity Plan and which is well placed to capitalise on the UK’s strengths in IT, the digital economy and finance for investment. 2. Overseas companies perceive the UK as a good place to locate their business and inward investment is happening. This positive perception is a direct result of the UK’s clear long- term strategy, the creation of the UK Space Agency, European Space Agency (ESA) investment to establish a presence in the UK, the broader business environment, a strong technology base and the availability of entrepreneurial and highly-skilled people to employ. 3. The Academy welcomes government’s continuing support represented by the recent National Space Policy and recognition of the cross-cutting nature of space across a huge range of government departments and agencies.

In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. 2 This thesis attempts to explore the influence that Duncan Sandys' experiences of the Second World War had on his policy preferences, and policy-making, in relation to British defence policy during his years in government. This is a significant period in British nuclear policy which began with thermonuclear weaponry being placed ostentatiously at the centre of British defence planning in the 1957 Defence White Paper, and ended with the British acquiring the latest American nuclear weapon technology as a consequence of the Polaris Sales Agreement. It also saw intense discussion of the nature and type of nuclear weaponry the British government sought to wield in the Cold War, with attempts to build indigenous land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles, and where British nuclear policy was discussed in extreme depth in government. The thesis explores this area by focusing on Duncan Sandys and examining his interaction with prominent aspects of the defence policy-making process.

    Principles of Systems Engineering Management: Reflections from 45 years of spacecraft technology research and development at the Mullard Space Science Laboratory M. R. Emes*, A. Smith, A. M. James, M. W. Whyndham, R. Leal and S. C. Jackson *Author to whom correspondence should be addressed UCL Centre for Systems Engineering, Mullard Space Science Laboratory, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking, RH5 6NT, UK, Tel: 01483 204100, [email protected] Copyright © 2012 by M R Emes et al. Published and used by INCOSE with permission Abstract. Based on 45 years of experience conducting research and development into spacecraft instrumentation and 13 years’ experience teaching Systems Engineering in a range of industries, the Mullard Space Science Laboratory at University College London (UCL) has identified a set of guiding principles that have been invaluable in delivering successful projects in the most demanding of environments. The five principles are: ‘principles govern process’, ‘seek alternative systems perspectives’, ‘understand the enterprise context’, ‘integrate systems engineering and project management’, and ‘invest in the early stages of projects’. A common thread behind the principles is a desire to foster the ability to anticipate and respond to a changing environment with a constant focus on achieving long-term value for the enterprise. These principles are applied in space projects and have been spun-out to non-space projects (primarily through UCL’s Centre for Systems Engineering). They are also embedded in UCL’s extensive teaching and professional training programme. Context UCL's Department of Space and Climate Physics (Mullard Space Science Laboratory – MSSL) is a world-leading research organization and is the UK's largest university-based space research group.

Porous Empire: Foreign Visitors And The Post-Stalin Soviet State Abstract “Porous Empire” is a study of the relationship between Soviet institutions, Soviet society and the millions of foreigners who visited the USSR between the mid-1950s and the mid-1980s. “Porous Empire” traces how Soviet economic, propaganda, and state security institutions, all shaped during the isolationist Stalin period, struggled to accommodate their practices to millions of visitors with material expectations and assumed legal rights radically unlike those of Soviet citizens. While much recent Soviet historiography focuses on the ways in which the post-Stalin opening to the outside world led to the erosion of official Soviet ideology, I argue that ideological attitudes inherited from the Stalin era structured institutional responses to a growing foreign presence in Soviet life. Therefore, while Soviet institutions had to accommodate their economic practices to the growing numbers of tourists and other visitors inside the Soviet borders and were forced to concede the existence of contact zones between foreigners and Soviet citizens that loosened some of the absolute sovereignty claims of the Soviet party-statem, they remained loyal to visions of Soviet economic independence, committed to fighting the cultural Cold War, and profoundly suspicious of the outside world.
