08.14.2009 - Today, Norm Augustine and the committee members met with OSTP and NASA senior management. It was basically a recapitulation and honing of what was presented in the public session on Wednesday, August 12. As we have advertised, this committee was governed by the Federal Advisory Committee Act and the members took that charge seriously. OSTP/NASA got essentially what the public got on Wednesday. The next step is to prepare the final report which will add more depth and text around what was presented and decided on Wednesday, but it will contain all the same primary messages. Report availability date is TBD.
08.14.2009 - The public meeting on Wednesday went very well, albeit longer than we anticipated. The members fully discussed and deliberated on all the options under consideration for human space flight. They described and discussed the options, the financial considerations for each option, and the evaluation criteria for assessing each option. Then, they down selected the options and discussed all of the evaluation criteria applicable to each option, including scoring them."

Of course one can sit back and just watch and see who will be the first to set up a Lunar Base and start manufacturing plants.

The Bear's stars shine brighter
By Rob Coppinger
As the first decade of the 21st century comes to a close the nation that sent the first man into space is planning a new crewed spacecraft for lunar and International Space Station missions, all in the wake of a tumultuous period of decline, stagnation and commercial rebirth.
Before 2005 the situation had been grim for the Russian space programme. The two government five-year plans that ran from 1991 to 2000 had little funding, and the 2001-5 plan saw the industry struggle with inadequate cashflow, achieving just 40% of its objectives and with only 73% of the necessary financing provided. In 2005 the Russian Federal Space Agency announced its first ever Rb305 billion ($9.77 billion) 10-year plan for 2006 to 2015.
While it set out Moon, Mars and Venus missions and human spaceflight ambitions, it was largely about restoring and enhancing Russia's space-based infrastructure. This infrastructure is meteorological, Earth observation and telecommunication networks of spacecraft and ground stations.
And then, perhaps with an eye to the 50th anniversary of the launch of Sputnik in October 2007, Russian Federal Space Agency head Anatoly Perminov announced on 31 August of that year a 30-year vision with greater ambition. This vision includes Moon bases and a manned Mars mission in the 2035 timeframe.
snip
The decisions that Obama's government makes could lead to Russia being a primary beneficiary, with an increased need for NASA to purchase crew transport.
For a nation whose space industry struggled so much 10 years ago, the next decade will see it prosper from its international co-operation, delivering partnerships that could see a Russian boot on the Moon by 2030.

08.11.2009 - Tomorrow (August 12) figures to be a major public meeting. If things go according to plan, we will get a presentation on the content, assumptions, and variations of the human space flight options. The options have been refined and fleshed out since last week. Then we should see the Aerospace-led analysis on the cost and schedule of the options. Next, we will hear about the evaluation criteria that will be used to assess each of the options, and then (hopefully) we will agree on the options to be forwarded to NASA/OSTP/OMB for consideration.
