Presentation Transcript

  1. Partnering Collaboration with Colorado School of Mines Presented at JUSTSAP/PISCES 2008

  2. Center for Space Resources Vision • The Center for Space Resources (CSR) pursues the study and utilization of space and planetary resources by developing technologies for drilling, excavation and extraction, materials processing and manufacturing, and spacecraft and habitat life-support systems.

  3. CSR Expertise • Lunar and Martian regolith properties • Planetary soil drilling and excavation • Extraction and processing of volatile and solid planetary material • In-situ resource utilization (ISRU) technologies • Manufacturing techniques with planetary materials • Lunar and planetary dust characterization, management, and mitigation techniques • Sensors for trace-species and biogenic gas detection on the Moon and Mars • Life support systems on spacecraft and planetary habitats, including fire suppression, environmental monitoring and control, water processing, and energy generation from waste and fuel cells • Advanced materials for in-space repairs and thermal protection • Technical and economic analyses for identifying potential commercial developments in space and planets

  4. The Partnership Why We Need Each Other • CSM and UHH are both small institutions not widely known in space exploration circles. • CSM, through CSR, has unique capabilities in ISRU, Engineering, Mining and Materials Science. • UHH, through PISCES, has unique facilities for lunar simulation and capabilities in physics, geology, agriculture and Hawaiian cultures, and high visibility within NASA as a ground analog site. • The technologies needed for a sustainable lunar outpost span the breadth of those needed on Earth. • No single university can do it all (neither can NASA)

  5. The Partnership What We Can Do Together • Reciprocal Use Of Facilities, Including Analytical Equipment and Field Test Sites • Reciprocal Participation in Education Programs Via Distance-learning Technology • Joint Proposals to NASA and Other Space Agencies Around the World • Joint Proposals in Partnership with Companies Doing Business with Both Centers • Joint Conferences Highlighting Activities at Both Centers • Shared Publicity Stressing Capabilities of Both Centers • Student And Faculty Exchanges for Research and Education Between the Two Centers

  6. An Example NASA Lunar Science Institute Proposal • Pillars of Sustainability: • Consumables – University of Hawai`i at Hilo College of Agriculture • Energy – University of Houston • Materials – Colorado School of Mines

  7. Summary CSM/UHH is a Trailblazer Partnership • Mutual Need • Complementary Strengths and Capabilities • Existing Opportunities • Personal Connections • The Partnership is Greater than the Sum of the Partners
