CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
|
|
|
|
AIR FORCE STUDY
|
|
on
|
|
Technology and Innovative Applications of Space Hardware
|
|
|
|
The United States Air Force is conducting a study to identify
|
|
creative technologies and innovative applications of hardware that
|
|
will support national security well into the next century. Air
|
|
University at Maxwell AFB, Alabama is chairing the study, which
|
|
will be called SPACECAST 2020. The product will recommend specific
|
|
technologies and applications that have the greatest potential.
|
|
|
|
Included in the first phase of this effort is the solicitation of
|
|
"brainstorming" abstracts from government agencies, industry,
|
|
academia, and private individuals. The Air Force Institute of
|
|
Technology at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio will handle these
|
|
abstracts for the study. Abstracts are needed in three areas:
|
|
|
|
1. Emerging research technologies that, if exploited, can
|
|
significantly improve the capabilities of our space systems
|
|
(to include satellite design, reliability, remote sensing,
|
|
data processing, power production, stealth, etc.).
|
|
|
|
2. Innovative space systems and applications for military
|
|
purposes.
|
|
|
|
3. Prior studies and briefings on future military space
|
|
systems.
|
|
|
|
If you have information in these areas, please provide one-page
|
|
abstracts that include:
|
|
|
|
1. A brief description of the concept.
|
|
|
|
2. Your understanding of the concept's military application
|
|
and associated technical risks and tradeoffs.
|
|
|
|
3. Your name and how you can be contacted.
|
|
|
|
Please remember the emphasis is on NEW or INNOVATIVE technologies
|
|
and uses for systems that could be fielded by the year 2020. Also,
|
|
please limit responses to one abstract per page with classification
|
|
no higher than SECRET. Your support is appreciated.
|
|
|
|
Abstract submittal by 15 October 1993 is requested. However,
|
|
abstracts submitted by 1 March 1994 will be included in the study.
|
|
Please submit abstracts to:
