Space Transportation, Systems, and Science Huntsville, Ala. Marshall has a key role in NASA’s mission. 4

Strategic Goals NASA Agency Marshall Space Flight Center Extend and sustain human activities across the solar system. Develop and operate integrated vehicles and systems to enable human space activities. Expand scientific understanding of the Earth and the universe in which we live. Develop, integrate, and operate instruments and conduct research to expand knowledge of the universe. Create innovative new space technologies for our exploration, science, and economic future. Advance aeronautics research for societal benefit. Enable program and institutional capabilities to conduct NASA’s aeronautics and space activities. Develop, test, and mature new space technologies to enable NASA missions and benefit the Nation. Marshall does not programmatically support aeronautics. Provide and manage program, project, and institutional capabilities to conduct NASA’s and Marshall’s space activities. Share NASA with the public, educators, Share NASA and Marshall with the public, and students to provide opportunities to educators, and students to foster participate in our mission, foster communication, participation, and innovation Marshall’s work aligns with five of the six agency strategic goals. innovation, and contribute to a strong to benefit the interests of the Nation. 5

Marshall impacts the community. 7

Marshall’s Role within NASA Living and Working in Space Understandin g Our World and Beyond Lifting from Earth Marshall contributes to the success of the agency’s mission. 8

Lifting from Earth – The Space Launch System SLS – America’s Heavy Lift Rocket • Safe, affordable and sustainable • Carries the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) • Supports national missions beyond Earth orbit • Back-up for ISS transportation • Initial lift capacity of 70 tonnes (t) evolving to 130 t • Builds on Saturn, Shuttle and Ares experience Solid Rocket Motor Test Friction Stir Welding Shell Buckling Test Upper Stage J-2 X Engine Tests Core Stage RS-25 Engines Marshall’s capabilities and facilities are launching the future of space vehicle development. 9

Investing in Our Nation’s Capabilities Stewardship: Formulate and recommend national policy options and strategies that promote a healthy industrial base. Technology: Identify technology needs and recommend technology insertions. Solutions Facilitator: Maintain relationships and awareness across the government and industry to align available capacity with emerging demand. 10

Living and Working in Space Science Operations, Hardware and Experiments Support Systems and Facilities Support • Continual human presence since 2000 • Manage science operations around the clock • Node 2 (connector module) • Node 3 (life support module) • Window Observational Research Facility • Cleaning air and recycling water • Microgravity Science Glovebox • Human rated pressurized modules • Materials Science Research Rack Node 3 Tranquility Environmental Control & Life Support POC WORF – Window Observational Research Facility Microgravity Science Glovebox Sustaining life and enabling discovery 11

Learning about Beyond our universe Understanding Our World and Worlds Scientific instruments to reveal information about activity in deep space • Management, design and construction • Award-winning scientists • Environmental Monitoring • Understanding climate change and weather patterns Weather Prediction • Improving forecasts and weather warning times Hurricane Research • Predicting the intensity and dynamics of storms Global Hydrology & Climate Center HIRAD Learning about our solar system • Spacecraft to study and analyze the sun, planets, comets and asteroids • Program management and instrument development SERVIR LCROSS Making discoveries and learning about our planet, solar system and the entire universe SWEAP 12

Focus on Partnerships Center Strategic Development (CSD) – Sets Strategy • Strategically determines what partnerships are most beneficial to Marshall and best support our core competencies and communicates this information back to the Partnerships Office • Helps the Partnership Office to identify stakeholders and opportunities to engage. • Focused on: • Rebuilding the center’s capability to propose and capture new work. • Evaluating new opportunities and providing information to management to help determine if the new work we go after supports our core capabilities • Helping develop long-term plans to get us where we want to be by the end of the decade Partnerships Office – Implementation • Provides a single entry point for Marshall’s external customers such as industry, academia, Do. D, other NASA centers, nonprofits, and international partners who want to partner with Marshall and utilize our skills and capabilities. • Will facilitate getting partners what they need and coordinating with the right people in the center or across the agency.
