Space Logistics Definition

• Definition Space logistics is the theory and practice of driving space system design

for operability, and of managing the flow of materiel, services, and information needed throughout a space system lifecycle.

History of AIAA Space Logistics TC• AIAA Space Logistics TC was formed several decades ago

Primarily focused on ground logistical operations to support space launch Had discontinued operations in 2000

• Committee restarted in 2002/03 broader agenda including in-space logistics operations intentionally broad definition of space logistics Initial members included Karen Barker, Ray Erikson, Pete Paceley etc…

• Last 5 years Increasing membership and level of activity fueled by

– ISS logistics becomes mainstream,, Commercial space transportation services (COTS), USAF responsive space, increased lifecycle focus

Cooperation with International Society of Logistics (SOLE) – Andy Evans Mike Snead Chair (2004-2006) Ray Erikson Chair (2006-2008) Olivier de Weck Chair (2008-2010) Alan Johnson (2010-2012)

Aerospace America Article – Year in review 2010SLTC Yearly Report submitted to SMG on 1/3/2011

• Conferences and Workshops Meeting @ ASM Orlando, 4 Jan 2010 with additional visit to NASA KSC Meeting @ SpaceOps Huntsville, 26 Apr 2010 Space Logistics Track at Space 2010 (5+1 sessions), robust attendance

• Publications / Technical Products Journal articles published in JSR, Released SpaceNet 2.5r2 to the public on 28 Dec 2010 (http://spacenet.mit.edu) Two AIAA/ANSI Standards in development

– Space Logistics Lexicon, Space Cargo Classification (COS) AIAA Progress Series Book under contract and in development

• Awards Investigating Space Logistics Award partnership with Int’l Society of Logistics (SOLE)

• Membership 5 New Nominations, will remain at full strength 30 (2009: 25, 2010: 30)

Latest TC News

• Space Logistics TC is part of AIAA Space and Missiles Group (SMG) Metrics score slipped from 0.84 (2009) to 0.615 (2010)

– Biggest loss on outreach (conference/workshop organizing and STEM education)– Johnson’s goal is to consolidate recent SLTC gains

• Membership Strong overall – 5 new members from industry and academia, plus more military

interest! – remain at ~ 30 overall Need to keep the press on exposure and recruiting!

• Website: Googlegroups dropping filesharing function 13 Jan 2010 Googlegroups will support existing content (for now?) Now posting all files on AIAA sharepoint site

– A plus: gives us better AIAA exposure on SLTC web activity Continue using Googlegroups email listserv capability

Latest TC News

• Investigated holding this meeting with RAMS vs ASM 24-27 Jan, Disney Contemporary Resort, Orlando Too expensive! (needed to pay up front, and seek reimbursement

• Travel funding an issue for SLTC officers Johnson (chair) and Shull (secretary) Both unlikely to attend Space 2011 / fall SLTC meeting

9

Priorities for Next Two Years

• Strengthen our TC Continue to grow our membership, and emphasize participation Finish our charter (awards section unfinished)

• Recognize TC Member Contributions Awards & AIAA membership upgrades

• Emphasize TC Output Conference participation Complete our Lexicon Foster book completion

10

Conference Sub-Committee

• AIAA Space 2011 Conference and Exposition Monday-Thursday, 2011 September 26-29 Baseline plan is to schedule Monday for half-day of technical paper sessions for

tracks that want paper sessions on Monday Long Beach Convention Center, Long Beach, California Hotel accommodations at Hyatt Regency Long Beach Hotel The Space 2011 theme is: Enhancing Today, Inspiring Tomorrow

11

12

• Maintain the level of excellence set by the previous Space 20XX conferences

• Increase involvement of exhibitors through sessions held in the exhibit hall listed in the technical program –build up poster sessions to increase traffic in exhibit hall

• Look for opportunities to create special activities involving young engineers, students, and the general public

• Look for opportunities to create special sessions designed to amplify conference theme and to transition key lessons learned to the next generation

• Consider social interaction opportunities and Webinar broadcasts –either live or re-broadcast

Publications Sub-Committee: Standards (Shishko)

• Lexicon (Nomenclature for Space Logistics)• Version 4 of the Space Logistics Lexicon Standard submitted to AIAA for

Review Sep 2008 Highlights location designations separately for easy reference Adds definition of “space logistics” …\ Returned to us: need more credible review committee

• SEC will format the draft standard and publish it for public review• If there are any significant comments on the draft standard, it will be

returned to our committee for reprocessing• If there are no comments it will be published as an AIAA standard

Allen Arrington new AIAA Standards Manager ASM stds workshop: 6 Jan 2011, 1400-1500

15Standard can be made available electronicallyNext Standard Project (in development): Classes of Supply (lead; Shishko)

AIAA Progress Series Volume on Space Logistics• Title (original): Space Logistics: Enabling New Frontiers• Rationale

Traditional focus on only spacecraft performance and trajectories Recognition now that operations costs (incl. logistics) are major drivers

for lifecycle cost, mission operability and safety This edited volume presents the latest state of the art in the field. Space

Logistics is a specialty area dealing with supply chain management of human and robotic space missions for scientific and exploration purposes.

The field includes modeling, planning, simulation and optimization of the flow of vehicles, crew, and cargo from the landing, manufacturing and refurbishment sites on Earth, through ground processing, launch, in-space operations, entry-descent-and-landing, as well as surface operations.

• Have about 60% of the 28 Chapters• Submissions and Revisions are ongoing• Hope to publish in 2011 (main challenge is time and focus to review and edit)
