Deep Space Habitation Capability Development • To ensure NASA gains innovative habitation concepts from industry, NASA is in the process of using the Broad Agency Announcement contracting mechanism to implement a phased approach for the deep space habitat development, including ground-based testing by 2018. – BAA allows greater opportunity than an RFP would to accomplish dual objectives of deep space habitat development and commercial market stimulation in LEO. – AES awarded the NextSTEP Phase 1 public-private partnerships for industry-led studies to define deep space habitat design concepts while maximizing synergy with commercial applications in LEO. – AES issued NextSTEP Phase 2 BAA that acts as if it were an on ramp for additional Phase 2 providers at the same time as we conduct the decision for any existing Phase 1 awards to proceed to Phase 2. NextSTEP BAA Phase 2, on-going technology development, and discussions with potential international partners all feed into decision(s) on acquisition approach for habitation for deep space and for 7 commercial investment in LEO capability.

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 order to identify all the constraints from both engineering and human sides, a meticulous system engineering approach has to be followed and the human sciences, including incorporation of ideas from artists, ergonomists and psychologists, have to be integrated in the very early stages of the mission design.
