March Storm 2017

The commercial space industry is emerging out of the technological advances made in the last half century. Much like the aerospace industry, policy and law are needed to regulate what can and cannot be done in space. This has been known since the launch of the first man-made object put into orbit. Laws and regulations pertaining to the use of space have been drafted and will continue to be necessary. This project examines legislative advocacy tactics and advocate training procedures during a weeklong legislative blitz on Capitol Hill. Through applied research in the planning, execution, and results of citizen advocacy, the impact of a legislative campaign will be examined. The “Citizens’ Space Agenda” consists of pro-space legislative proposals supported by national non-profit space groups. The leaders of the March Storm blitz schedule meetings with congressional offices, committees, and executive offices. With no lobbying experience necessary, volunteers are trained on the agenda and advocacy techniques to employ during congressional meetings. Throughout the week, advocates are tasked with compiling after-action reports for each congressional meeting detailing the agenda items discussed and the offices’ reactions. Upon the resolution of the blitz, organizers will follow up with congressional staff to monitor the results of the specific asks made. The entire process will be analyzed and a critique offered. This research, which will be included in the overall group presentation by the students who are going to March Storm, involves the efforts of the branches of the Federal Government in producing space legislation that will then be placed into the United States Code and the Code of Federal Regulations. Research will include how the statutes affect the policy of the United States for operating in space and the direction it gives to its federal agencies to do so

The Polar Cloud Satellite: The First CubeSat Mission to Study Noctilucent Clouds

Members of the Spaceflight Sciences, Policy, and Operations Club (SSPOC) are designing a 1U CubeSat, the Polar Cloud Satellite, that will host an ultraviolet instrument that will image noctilucent clouds. Noctilucent clouds, formally called polar mesospheric clouds (PMCs), are clouds made of ice particles and water vapor that form in the polar regions of the Earth at altitudes ranging from 76 to 85 kilometers. The formation of PMCs at much lower latitudes than usual since their discovery in the 1980s can possibly be linked to increased carbon dioxide output by humans. NASA’s Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere (AIM) satellite was launched in 2007 to study these clouds and how they form. Our team plans to purchase and integrate an ultraviolet instrument that will be used to image PMCs, but with a much smaller satellite than AIM. We hope to collaborate with an AIM institution at some level, such as data comparison with AIM’s images. Our team will assemble and test the satellite bus and its systems, integrate the ultraviolet payload, and operate the mission from a spaceflight operations center on campus, perhaps in the College of Aviation’s Department of Applied Aviation Sciences

A Three-Pronged Analysis of the Proposal for a United States Space Force

On June 18, 2018, at a meeting of the newly revived National Space Council, President Trump announced that he had directed the Department of Defense and the Pentagon “to immediately begin the process necessary to establish a space force as the sixth branch of the armed forces.” This paper will discuss a three-pronged analysis of the proposal for the United States Space Force. The three topics discussed are legal, political, and military issues that the creation of Space Oriented branch will encounter. The paper has been broken up into four teams consisting of two partners, which comes to a total of nine with one lead overseeing all the teams. The four teams are the legal team which will discuss the legislative components, the military team which will discuss the logistical transfer from the Air Force to the Space Force, the political team which will discuss the effect that the new branch will have on world politics, and the recommendation team which will make the final edits to ensure the entire format, citation, and sources are correct. The paper will be published through the university and hopefully be used in consideration for the creation of the Space Force

A katona-egészségügy szerepe a rehabilitáció 21. századi fejlődésében (1.)

A 21. század nem csak politikai és társadalmi változásokat hozott: a felgyorsuló technikai-technológiai fejlődés nyomán a gyógyászatban is egyre korszerűbb és egyre hatékonyabb eszközök, illetve módszerek állnak rendelkezésre. A rehabilitáció terén ilyen az exoskeleton vagy a bionikus művégtagok megjelenése, de szerephez jutnak a VR-rendszerek, sőt egyes telefonos applikációk is, mindezek mellett a pszichológia fejlődése is töretlen a szakterületen. Dr. Weinhoffer Judit az utóbbi két évtized tendenciáit foglalja össze kétrészes tanulmányában, amely A katona-egészségügy szerepe a rehabilitáció 20. és 21. századi fejlődésében című, a Zrínyi Kiadónál 2021-ben megjelent kötete 7. fejezetének szerkesztett változata.</jats:p
