This is a Special Notice and does not constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will take action in this matter.

Background:

As NASA plans for the retirement of the International Space Station at the end of the decade, the ability of private industry to take on the task of providing routine utilization of low-Earth orbit and maintaining a continuous U.S. presence in space is of vital importance to both NASA and U.S. goals.

In a multiphase strategy, the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center’s (JSC) Commercial Low-Earth Orbit Development Program (CLDP) is helping to spur the development of new low-Earth orbit space destinations and supporting systems from private industry. These systems may include end-to-end services such as the in-orbit destination, visiting vehicles, and supporting launch vehicles and ground systems.

NASA is currently developing requirements for Commercial LEO Destination (CLD) capabilities that would be able to support NASA astronauts and other spaceflight participants safely in LEO on a commercially owned and operated space system. NASA anticipates a CLD-provider will be required to be a U.S. Commercial Provider as defined in 51 USC § 50101(7). See link here for additional information: https://www.nasa.gov/leo-economy/low-earth-orbit-economy/. 

Purpose:

NASA’s CLDP invites industry to attend a TIM regarding CLDP’s draft concepts on Destination Requirements and Safety.  NASA will outline Safety best practices and lessons learned from NASA Human Spaceflight Programs.  The discussion will cover core activities, processes, and technical requirements necessary to support safe operations and utilization.  Additionally, NASA is requesting industry feedback on the following documents: “CLDP-REQ-1130, Requirements and Standards for CLDP and CLDP-REQ-3102, CLDP Hazard Analysis and Safety Process Requirements Document.” (CLDP-REQ-3102 is attached in this notice / CLDP-REQ-1130 will be uploaded in a future notice modification).The CLDP-REQ-3102 response form should be submitted to NASA CLDP S&MA Deputy Chair, [email protected].  Response forms are due on or before February 14, 2025 (5:00pm central time).  Opportunities for virtual one-on-one sessions may be requested with the respective SE&I and/or S&MA point of contact listed above. These sessions are planned to be tentatively scheduled in March 2025 after feedback is received. Details for these sessions will be developed after the receipt of the request.

This three-day event will be hosted at JSC’s Gilruth Center (Destiny Ballroom) in Houston, TX on January 28th, 29th, and 30th 2025. The agenda is included as a separate attachment labeled "Agenda.pdf".

This event supports NASA’s effort to maintain open communications with the private sector that could aid in the development of safe, reliable, innovative, and cost-effective space destination capabilities.

NASA reserves the right to share all information received in response to this event within the Commercial Low-Earth Orbit Development Program and other NASA program stakeholders, and to use all information submitted in response to this exchange in the formulation of CLDP strategy.
