National Aeronautics Research and Development Policy

Abstract

This National Aeronautics Research and Development Policy, along with its accompanying Executive Order signed by President Bush on December 20, 2006 will guide U.S. aeronautics research and development (R&D) programs through 2020. It was developed through a collaborative interagency process under the overarching goal to advance U.S. technological leadership in aeronautics by fostering a vibrant and dynamic aeronautics R&D community that includes government industry and academia. This goal is supported in the Policy by principles and objectives that will drive Federal aeronautics R&D activities and guidelines that delineate agency roles and responsibilities in the following areas: (1) stable and long-term foundational research: (2) advanced aircraft systems development: (3) air transportation management systems; and (4) national research development test and evaluation infrastructure.
