Subject:
NASA is sponsoring an International Space Station (ISS) Academy and
Pre-Application at the South Shore Harbour Resort and Conference Center in
League City, Texas from August 3-5, 2010. There is no registration fee to
attend this meeting, however, all expenses associated with travel, lodging,
transportation and miscellaneous are the responsibility of the attendees.
The objectives of the NASA ISS Research Academy are:
1. To provide new principal investigators and payload developers
an overview of the capabilities of the ISS for research and the unique
advantages of ISS for doing groundbreaking research.
2. To educate the participants about available ISS research
opportunities and the process to follow to apply for these opportunities from
the following agencies: NASA, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the
National Science Foundation (NSF).
3. To introduce new principal investigators to the various
implementation partners that can provide hardware for different disciplines of
research. The PI's and IP's will have time to evaluate the ability of
different types of hardware to accomplish specific research objectives of the
PI.
4. To provide new ISS Principal Investigators (PIs), Project
Scientists (PSs) and Payload Developers (PDs) a good understanding of the NASA
ISS Payload Planning, Integration and Operation Process.
5. To inform PIs, PSs and PDs about several services that the
NASA ISS Payloads Office has available as part of the overall Payload
Integration Process to help them during their payload integration process for a
successful vehicle-payload integration and on-orbit operations.
Information on Registration, Accommodations, Meeting Location, Proceedings,
Contact Information and a preliminary agenda is provided in the enclosure. We
