The Independent Assessment Panel (IAP) was chartered to review and assess the DoD management and organization of National Security in Space and make appropriate recommendations to strengthen the U.S. position. The panel members are unanimous in our conviction that significant improvements in National Security Space (NSS) leadership, management, and organization are imperative to maintain U.S. Space preeminence and avert the loss of the U.S. competitive national security advantage. NSS inadequacies are unacceptable today and are likely to grow, but leadership can reverse this trend. Scope of National Security Space. The National Security Space enterprise comprises a wide range of government and non-government organizations responsible for providing and operating Space-based capabilities serving both military and Intelligence Community needs. * Military Space responsibilities are shared among many DoD components including the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Joint Staff, Defense Agencies, Combatant Commands, the Military Services and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) activities involving Space- based capabilities for communications, early warning, weather, surveillance, Space control, and precision navigation and timing as well as launch, Space ranges, and research and development (R&D). * Intelligence Space responsibilities include reconnaissance and related satellite systems and operations. * The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) responsibilities include weather and remote sensing.
