| Abstract: The Operationally Responsive Space mission depends on innovative ways to acquire components, satellites, and launch vehicles; assemble and test space systems; and perform launch and mission operations. Many US allies are already focused on developing and exploiting small satellites and streamlined mission operation strategies for civil and defense applications. From the beginning, the ORS Office and AFRL have had the goal of collaborating with our allies to develop a single set of responsive space standards and enlisting their abilities and expertise in realizing the ORS vision. Toward that end, AFRL has initiated the “Globalize and Internationalize [ORS] Standards and Technology” or GIST program to develop and document the legal foundation and establish an international team to participate in the development of ORS standards. GIST has developed a strategy that will establish a collaborative environment to allow government, industry, and academic entities in the US and multiple ally countries to work together and forge the set of standards necessary to enable the responsive spacecraft assembly and test that is a keystone of the ORS vision. The strategy incorporates two different approaches, one that addresses DoD requirements for international technology development activities, and one that authorizes the exchange of so-called “export-controlled technical data” between US non-defense entities and their foreign counterparts (industry, academia, and civil space organizations). The full paper describes how this international approach aligns with the ORS Office plans for further standards development; how the GIST approach ensures ITAR-compliance by employing existing treaties, export licensing processes, and defense international project agreements; and how the program will increase opportunities for international collaboration in developing ORS components and provide export opportunities for the US space industry. | |
