Extractions: On the Establishment of Science Institutes In response to a request for guidance on the establishment of science institutes, Space Studies Board Chair Claude R. Canizares sent the following letter to NASA Chief Scientist France A. Cordova on August 11, 1995. The Space Studies Board is pleased to respond to your request of June 8, 1995, for comments on several issues related to NASA's proposed concept of establishing science institutes as part of its Zero Base Review. You requested a rapid response with our initial comments in order to meet your schedule for further definition of the concept and the possible establishment of pilot institutes. Your presentation to the Board during our meeting of June 8, together with some background material mailed earlier to all members, was the starting point for our deliberations on this topic. Our discussions continued on the following day with the Associate Administrators for Space Science and Mission to Planet Earth and the Deputy Associate Administrator for Life and Microgravity Sciences and Applications. A subset of the Board, together with members of the Future of Space Science (FOSS) Steering Group, also had the opportunity to discuss the proposed institutes with the Administrator, Mr. Daniel Goldin.

Videos Swiss Space Research and Scientific Institutes and Industry Space research and science in Switzerland are carried out by various institutes and laboratories at the cantonal universities, Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology and by industry. Space research and science receive financial support from the Swiss National Science Foundation as well as from the cantons and the Confederation. Swiss scientists are well represented in Life Science research projects (biotechnology, cell and developmental biology, integrated physiology, bone and muscle physiology, origin and evolution of life and last but not least neuroscience). In the Physical Science research projects the involvement is in new materials, cold atoms and quantum fluids, thermo-physical properties combustion and the dynamics of fluids). For example Switzerland has a great deal of competence in biotechnology research. The bioreactors, instruments needed to conduct this type of research, are manufactured in our country. The last generation, progressively automated, will contribute significantly to tissue engineering, a highly interdisciplinary science with a significant socio-economic prospect: the reconstruction of a human or animal tissue.

Extractions: ESA provides the spacecraft, the launch vehicle and the operation services for the most challenging science missions; however, the experiments defining the scientific payload on board satellites and probes are contributions from the national space agencies. In as much as the Swiss science community participated in the definition of the science programme, it also contributed to the implementation of various ambitious payload concepts and missions together with the Swiss industry. PRODEX - specifically encourages the exploitation of synergies among research institutions and industry. A comprehensive review of Swiss space research activities can be found in the reports prepared by the Committee on Space Research CRS of the Swiss Academy of Sciences SAS for the plenary meetings of COSPAR

Upcoming events include the entry into force of the European Community and European Space Agency (ESA) Framework Agreement and the launching of a new 'Panel of Experts on Space and Security'. 03 May 2004 The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) adopted an Opinion on the White Paper on European Space Policy on 31 March 2004. As part of the European Union's institutional system providing a link between Europe and civil society, the EESC has a key role to play in the Union's decision-making process.
ES, IG-98-037, NASA Science Research Institutes procedures and Agency guidance on the use of cooperative agreements in establishing the science research institutes. NASA s Johnson space Center established http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/oig/hq/ig-98-037es.htm
Extractions: In 1995, NASA's Zero Base Review identified the concept of science research institutes as a potentially beneficial approach to maintain or improve the quality of science research despite organizational streamlining. The strategy involved "privatization" of a portion of the Agency's science programs into several science research institutes. Under its Science Institute Plan, NASA intended to select universities, not-for-profit organizations, and consortia to operate 11 institutes under competitively awarded contracts or cooperative agreements to conduct research to support the missions of selected NASA Centers. Although NASA announced in June 1996 that its efforts to create the institutes were being discontinued, in 1997 the Agency established the following science research institutes through the award of cooperative agreements: National Center for Microgravity Research on Fluids and Combustion (the Microgravity Research Center) at Lewis Research Center, Institute for Global Change Research and Education at Marshall Space Flight Center

The aeronomy studies the physical and chemical phenomena within planetary and cometary atmospheres, resulting primarily from the interaction with the solar radiation. In the case of our atmosphere, it inquires also the influence of biological or human activity. The ozone hole, the greenhouse effect, the magnetic storms and the radiations belts are some outstanding examples. Address: Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy

IMPRS Solar System Physics / Institutes expertise, outstanding data from space and ground-based programmes, as well as the involvement of the institutes in the development of space missions and http://www.linmpi.mpg.de/solar-system-school/institutes.html
Extractions: The school is implemented in parallel with the Subjects of investigations are the Sun and its atmosphere and the interplanetary medium, the surfaces, atmospheres, ionospheres and magnetospheres of the planets, their rings and moons, comets and asteroids. The solar corona is observed with optical instruments in space over the entire spectral range from the visible to soft X-rays. Its plasma properties are determined by spectroscopic methods and by in-situ observations in interplanetary space. The lower solar atmosphere is investigated with spectropolarimetric techniques, both from ground and space. The main aim is to study the Sun's magnetic field and its fundamental role in driving a large number of solar phenomena, many of which constitute the cause for space weather or are suspected drivers of global climate change. The planets, specifically Mars, and their moons, asteroids and comets are investigated with space-borne and ground-based imaging techniques and with in-situ measurements. Research topics comprise the interior structure and dynamics of planets and small bodies, the composition and evolution of their surfaces and atmospheres and the planetary plasma environment. The basic goal is to understand the origin and evolution of the solar system. The institute plays a leading role in a vast number of space missions, with Helios, Giotto, Ulysses, SOHO, Cluster and Rosetta being prominent examples, and operates or has a stake in a number of ground-based observatories. In the course of this involvement the institute has built up a unique know-how in the design, construction, qualification, and operation of a wide variety of specialised instruments. These instruments are or will be providing high-quality data, which constitute an excellent basis for many PhD theses. There is also a strong background in theoretical plasma physics at the institute, which is now being augmented by a strong emphasis on numerical simulations applied to geophysics, planetary science and solar physics. A state of the art multiprocessor computer system allows demanding numerical calculations to be performed.
