The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) asked the IDA Science and Technology Policy Institute (STPI) to research the role of Federal agencies other than the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in creating a sustainable U.S. presence on the Moon by: 1. identifying which Federal agencies could be involved, 2. describing what the roles of those agencies might be, and 3. determining if there will be a need for interagency coordination. As directed by the OSTP sponsor at the start of the project, STPIs analysis focused on a field station at the lunar South Pole and the role of the U.S. Government in promoting private sector commercial activity as well as science and exploration. We identified civil agencies other than NASA that have expertise, resources, or authority that could contribute to or benefit from U.S. plans for Moon development. In addition, the OSTP sponsor asked STPI to look into the U.S. Antarctic Program for lessons in establishing and operating a lunar field station, including balancing interagency interests and equities.
