10:30 a.m. Workshop Introduction Don Kessler, Chair
10:35 a.m. Session 1: NASA Meteoroid and Orbital Debris Programs
The leads for NASA’s Meteoroid and Orbital Debris (MMOD) programs will speak
about program goals, issues, gaps, and opportunities.
Panelists: John Lyver, Office of Safety and Mission Assurance, NASA
Headquarters, Manager of NASA’s Meteoroid and Orbital Debris
Program Offices
Gene Stansbery, NASA Orbital Debris Program Office, Johnson Space
Center
William Cooke, Meteoroid Environment Office, Marshall Space Flight
Center
Eric Christiansen, Hypervelocity Impact Technology Group,
Johnson Space Center/Human Exploration Science Office
Lauri Newman, NASA Robotic Conjunction Assessment Risk Analysis,
Goddard Space Flight Center
12:00 p.m. Lunch
12:45 p.m. Session 2: NASA Mission Operators
Project managers and system engineers from various NASA robotic missions will discuss
MMOD issues from an operations standpoint. What MMOD-related problems do
missions encounter throughout the lifetime of a spacecraft? How do NASA’s MMOD
programs meet mission planners’ and operators’ needs? What information are mission
managers using to make decisions related to the operations of a spacecraft, and how do
mission managers make MMOD-related decisions?
Panelists: Michael Rhee, Systems Engineer, Global Precipitation Measurement
Mission, Goddard Space Flight Center
Mark Woodard, Senior Flight Dynamics Engineer, ARTEMIS Mission,
Goddard Space Flight Center
Patrick Crouse, Operations Project Manager, Hubble Space Telescope,
Goddard Space Flight Center
Glenn Shirtliffe, Project Manager, Jason-1 and OSTM/Jason-2 Missions,

2:15 p.m. Session 3: Role of NASA’s MMOD Programs and Their Relationship to Other
Federal Agencies
Representatives of U.S. government agencies involved in space policy, space and Earth
science, and MMOD issues will discuss challenges they face from the space environment,
interagency issues and opportunities for collaboration, and how and to what extent they
engage NASA’s MMOD programs.
Panelists: Andrew Palowitch, Director, Space Protection Program, Air Force Space
Command/National Reconnaissance Office
Phil Brinkman, Program Lead for Licenses, Office of Commercial Space
Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration

6:00 p.m. Committee Working Dinner
MARCH 10, 2011
9:00 a.m. Session 4: MMOD and the Commercial Industry Perspective
Members of the aerospace and space insurance industries will talk about how MMOD
affects business operations, from the manufacturing of spacecraft to making on-orbit
decisions about a possible collision. What tools does industry use to make decisions
affecting their space assets, what is industry’s relationship with NASA’s MMOD
programs, and what opportunities for collaboration are there between industry and
NASA?
Panelists: John Campbell, Lt. Gen. (ret.), USAF, Executive Vice President of
Government Programs, Iridium Satellite Communications
Larry Price, Orion Deputy Program Manager, Lockheed Martin Space
Systems
Chris Kunstadter, Senior Vice President, XL Insurance
10:45 a.m. Session 5: Panel on Orbital Debris Retrieval and Removal
The 2010 National Space Policy calls for U.S. government research and development
efforts to be made to retrieve and remove orbital debris, but how will that policy be
turned into action? Representatives of NASA’s technology development programs, the
