Roadmap Working Group FISO Telecon, 11 December 2013 Introduction to the Global Exploration Roadmap The GER is a human space exploration roadmap, recognizing the criticality of increasing synergies with robotic missions while demonstrating the unique and important role humans play in realizing societal benefits The non-binding document reflects a framework for agency exploration discussions on: • Common goals and objectives • Long-range mission scenarios and architectures • Opportunities for near-term coordination and cooperation on preparatory activities GER update, released in August 2013, demonstrates agencies continue to collaboratively prepare for future human space exploration missions • A unified international roadmap for next steps in implementing a common space exploration strategy which begins with ISS and extends human presence beyond low-Earth orbit using future missions to Mars as a driving goal As with initial version, this GER is consistent with established individual agency policies and plans 2 Participating Agencies 12 space agencies participate in the GER development activity 3 GER Messages Sustainable human space exploration will be an international endeavor • An international roadmap follows a path that enables multiple partners to play critical roles and pursue individual priorities which are consistent with common long-term goals Near-term missions
