SPACE POLICY of the BARACK OBAMA administration

April 15, 2010 The space policy of the "Barack Obama Administration" was announced by U.S. President Barack Obama. At a major space policy speech at Kennedy Space Center. He committed 2 increasing NASA funding by $6 billion over 5 years & completing the design of a new heavy-lift launch vehicle by 2015 & to begin construction thereafter.

He also predicted a U.S. crewed orbital Mars mission by the mid-2030s, preceded by an asteroid mission by 2025. In response to concerns over job losses, Obama promised a $40 million effort to help Space Coast workers affected by the cancellation of the Space Shuttle program and Constellation program.



Obama gave the 1st major space policy speech of his campaign in Titusville, Florida in August 2008. He subsequently approved a seven-page space plan that committed to target dates for destinations beyond low Earth orbit.

"Barack Obama endorses the goal of sending human missions to the Moon by 2020, as a precursor in an orderly progression to missions to more distant destinations, including Mars."

Obama was noted for "Having offered more specifics about his plans for NASA than any U.S. presidential candidate in history",but his record on keeping his campaign promises has been mixed.

NASA & DARPA Plan ‘100 Year Starship’ (100YSS) Program To Bring HUMANS 2 Other Worlds & LEAVE Them There 4ever!!

NASA Ames Director Simon “Pete” Worden revealed in 2010 that NASA Ames has “Just started a project with DARPA called The 100 Year Starship,” with $1 million funding from DARPA & $100K from NASA.



“You heard it here,” said Worden at “Long Conversation,” a Long Now Foundation event in San Francisco. “We also hope to inveigle some billionaires to form a Hundred Year Starship fund,” Dr. Worden added. “I absolutely will be on board.”

“The human space program is now really aimed at settling other worlds,” he explained. “Twenty years ago you had to whisper that in dark bars and get fired.”(Worden was in fact fired by President George W. Bush, he also revealed.)

"RedXDefense" BOMB DETECTION COMPANY Co- Founded By REGINA DUGAN

Currently, Pentagon’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) is investigating contracts worth hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars that were awarded to RedXDefense by DARPA under Regina Dugan’s leadership. She still is part owner of company. This is standard operating procedure for the "WAR PROFITEERS"with blatant conflicts of interest like Regina Dugan & Michael Chertoff.

Military memorandum revealed that a separate audit is looking into some of the 2,000 other contracts DARPA signed under Regina Dugan. No results of the investigations released to the public as of yet the inquiries had “NO IMPACT” on Regina Dugan decision to leave DARPA.

GOOGLE Hires Controversial "DARPA" Director To Executive Position

REGINA DUGAN, The Director of the "Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency", has left the PENTAGON to take an executive position with GOOGLE.
She will be working for co-founder Sergey Brin on long-term research projects.“Regina is a technical pioneer who brought the future of technology to the military during her time at DARPA,”

Projects like MIND-CONTROLLED LIMBS & SHAPE- SHIFTING ROBOTS were scrapped for research on much-needed battlefield equipment. She focused on next-generation manufacturing and on cyber-security, which earned her a great deal of praise from the White House

REGINA DUGAN, The Director Of The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)left the Pentagon’s mad scientist research agency for the corporate "BIG BROTHER" known as GOOGLE March 2012. DUGAN Been at DARPA for less than 3 years and was offered & accepted a senior executive position with GOOGLE.

REGINA Dugan been relatively popular director because of her emphasis on CYBERSECURITY matters & next-generation manufacturing, which has garnered significant support from the OBAMA ADMINISTRATION, which allowed DARPA to dodge the bullet of budget cuts that has hit the Pentagon as of late.

Dugan also is lauded by for her push into “CROWDSOURCING" and her increasing outreach to the hacker community, which resulted in some quite astounding technology like the miniature,inexpensive & easily concealed spy computer known as the F-BOMB.

"There is a time and a place for daydreaming. But it is not at DARPA,Darpa is not the place of dreamlike musings or fantasies, not a place for self-indulging in wishes and hopes. Darpa is a place of doing.” -REGINA DUGAN (Told a congressional panel in March of 2011)

Dark Side Of The Enterprise

Government Contracting

The FED (Foundation 4 Enterprise Development) works with the federal R&D community in technology strategic planning to promote innovation in solving problems of national and global importance.


The FED provides program development and technical consulting services to stimulate science and technology (S&T) innovation being developed by early stage and growth companies.
DARPA Transition Support Pilot Program

Working one-on-one with DARPA SBIR/STTR Phase II awardees to:

* Provide targeted assistance in identifying potential Phase III funding sources, and potential government and commercial partners
* Further mature technology to Technology Readiness Level 7: System prototype demonstration in an operational environment
* Address commercialization and transition challenges in the U.S. government marketplace
* Document transition successes for distribution at outreach events
* Capture lessons learned, best practices and help develop and implement process improvements to increase transition success

DARPA 100 Year StarshipTM (100YSS)

With100YSS, the stated vision is much larger than technology development or national security. DARPA has expressed a desire to create a renewed enthusiasm and “wonder” across a broad range of research and development, including science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) but also in humanities, arts, management, financing and other related areas for the success of long distance long duration spaceflight. Benefits are not only expected to extend into private and commercial sectors, but to be led by them.

In 2011, the FED led an expert team to help answer the question about the ownership and governance, organizational design, and investment vehicles for the sustainability of the 100YSS. The FED team was selected to present at the NASA 100YSS symposium organized by DARPA and NASA’s Ames Research Centre in Orlando, Florida between 9/30/12 to 10/2/12.

ICAR INTERSTELLAR (Member of the 100 Year Starship initiative)

Icarus Interstellar is a non-profit formed in March 2011. It is registered in the US state of Alaska. It was a spin-off from several people working on Project Icarus (Interstellar Probe Design Study), a theoretical effort to design a STARSHIP.Icarus Interstellar was founded by Andreas Tziolas, Richard Obousy, Kelvin Long, Pat Galea and Adam Crowl, all members of the "Original Project Icarus Study Group."

The Organization does not currently have a physical headquarters and instead members are spread around the world, working in a volunteer capacity. The organizations has 7 Directors, as follows:

* Richard Obousy, President
* Andreas Tziolas, Vice President (North America)

* Bill Cress, Director

The organization has a RESEARCH COMMITTEE, EXPERIMENTAL COMMITTEE, Business Development Committee,Public Outreach Committee,and an EDUCATION COMMITTEE.

Interstellar Space Travel: is manned or unmanned travel between stars.Concept of interstellar travel in STARSHIPS is a staple of science fiction.NASA,ESA and other space agencies have been engaging in research into these topics for several years, and have accumulated a number of theoretical approaches.


Mae Jemison and Team Establish 100 Year STARSHIP With Goal to Make Interstellar Space Travel Reality by 2112

“An Inclusive, Audacious Journey Transforms Life Here on Earth and Beyond” proposal won the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) challenge—to create “a viable and sustainable non-governmental organization for persistent, long-term, private-sector investment into the myriad of disciplines needed to make long-distance space travel possible."
