CONFERENCE REVIEWS PROGRESS OF NASA AERONAUTICS PROGRAM
One year ago, NASA set ten bold aeronautics and space
transportation goals that will have a dramatic impact on the
United States into the 21st Century. On Friday, Oct. 9, 1998,
NASA's Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, will host the
inaugural "Turning Goals Into Reality" conference to present the
progress being made toward those goals.
NASA representatives, university and industry partners, who
developed the ten outcome-based goals, along with airlines,
aircraft maintenance companies, air cargo firms and other
government organizations, will come together to review and assess
NASA's technology programs, partnerships and overall progress.
Panel discussions geared to each of the three "Pillars" --
Global Civil Aviation, Revolutionary Technology Leaps and Access
to Space -- will be led by NASA Center Directors: Jerry Creedon,
Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA; Henry McDonald, Ames
Research Center, Moffett Field, CA; and Deputy Director Carolyn
Griner, Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, AL. Panelists
will include representatives from the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), General Electric, The Boeing Co., Williams
International, Pratt & Whitney, Lockheed Martin Corp., Orbital
Sciences Corp. and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
Some of the innovations and technological breakthroughs
achieved over the past year also will be displayed in the Lewis
hangar. Researchers from NASA and industry will be on hand to
discuss their accomplishments and the benefits people can expect
to see as these technologies enter into the marketplace.
As part of this inaugural annual conference, NASA will
present awards to industry and university and government teams
that have made significant contributions or accomplishments in
aviation research.
This year's NASA Administrator's Award will be presented to
the Center-TRACON Automation System Team of NASA's Ames Research
Center, Langley Research Center and the FAA for its
accomplishments in improving aviation system capacity.
The other award recipients include:
For accomplishments in aviation safety - The NASA Airframe
Structural Integrity Program Team, including NASA's Langley
Research Center; Lockheed Martin Missiles and Space Company;
Cornell University and the University of Texas.
For accomplishments in environmental compatibility/emissions -
The High-Speed Research Combustor Configuration Team of NASA's
Lewis Research Center, GE Aircraft Engines and Pratt & Whitney.
For accomplishments in environmental compatibility/noise - The
Advanced Subsonic Transport Engine Systems Noise Reduction Team of
NASA's Langley Research Center, and Lewis Research Center; FAA;
Allison Engine Company; AlliedSignal Engines; AYT Corporation;
Boeing Commercial Airplane Group; Fluidyne; BF Goodrich Aerospace;
GE Aircraft Engines; Lockheed Martin; Northrop Grumman; NYMA;
Pratt & Whitney; Virginia Consortium of Engineering and Science
Universities.
For accomplishments in affordable air travel - The Composite
Wing Team of NASA's Langley Research Center and Boeing Commercial
Airplane Group.
For accomplishments in high-speed travel - The PETI-5
Development team of NASA's Langley Research Center.
For accomplishments in general aviation - The Advanced General
Aviation Transport Experiments Consortium (AGATE) of NASA's
Langley and Lewis Research Centers, AGATE Alliance and the FAA.
For accomplishments in next-generation design tools and
experimental aircraft - The APNASA Development Team of NASA's
Lewis Research Center; U. S. Army Vehicle Technology Center; U.S.
Air Force Research Laboratory Propulsion Directorate; Allison
Engine Co.; AlliedSignal Engines; GE Aircraft Engines; ASE
Technologies; OAI and NYMA.
For accomplishments in affordable access to space - The X-
33/Reusable Launch Vehicle Propellant Densification Team of NASA's
Lewis Research Center, Kennedy Space Center, and Marshall Space
Flight Center; Sierra Lobo Inc.; Gilchrest; The Boeing Co.;
Analex; ADF; and Lockheed Martin Michoud Space Systems.
In order to provide an opportunity for the AgencyÕs
stakeholders, the general public, educators and students to
participate, the conference will be cybercast live through NASA's
Learning Technologies Channel. To participate visit:
