Space Survivability & Surveillance
Abstract
In FY 2021, PE 1206601F, Space Technology efforts were transferred to Appropriation 3620, Research, Development, Test & Evaluation, Space Force, PE 1206601SF, Space Technology, from Appropriation 3600, Budget Activity (BA) 02 due to the creation of a new Appropriation for Space Force. This is an administrative realignment and not a New Start. This project develops technologies to understand and control the space environment for warfighter's future capabilities. The focus is on characterizing and forecasting the battlespace environment for more realistic space system design, modeling, and simulation, as well as the battlespace environment's effect on space systems' performance. This includes technologies to specify and forecast the space environment for planning operations, ensure uninterrupted system performance, optimize space-based surveillance operations, and provide capability to mitigate or exploit the space environment for both offensive and defensive operations. Finally, this project includes the seismic research program that supports national requirements for monitoring nuclear explosions.
