3 COMMERCIALIZATION OF SPACE TRAVEL Key Note Speaker and Moderator Dr. Dafydd Williams, retired Astronaut (mission specialist on two NASA space shuttle missions), current President and CEO of Southlake Regional Health Center and Assistant Professor of surgery at the University of Toronto Panelists Naser Al Rashedi, Director of Space Policy and Regulations, UAE Space Agency Catalin Radu, Deputy Director, Aviation Safety, Air Navigation Bureau, ICAO Joram Verstraeten, Member, Commercial Human Space Flight Safety Technical Committee, Saturn SMS; Consultant, Air Transport Safety, NLR Air Transport Safety Institute (NLR-ATSI)

5 Outline Some real profiles currently being flown or in very mature stages of development Safety how these operations may affect (and indeed be part of) aviation for some parts of their flight/mission profiles Safety how aviation can serve as a best practice for commercial space

20 Safety How these operations may affect (and indeed be part of) aviation for some parts of their flight/mission profiles As they operate through Air Space For Dual use Air and Space ports For Air Launches For Space-planes

21 Safety subjects at a glance Airspace / Air Traffic Management Environmental Protection Export Controls / IP Management Flight Crew General Liability/ Insurance Licensing / Authorization Manufacturer / Airworthiness Manufacturer / Airworthiness / Design Medical Meteorology Operations / Launch/ In-Flight Space Debris Space Ports

22 Safety How Aviation can serve as a best practice for Commercial Space The experience of RPAS (UAVS/Drones) As a new technology and entrant as an airspace user As a vehicle that operates at high altitudes The Safety Management Experience As a risk-based approach to operating safely

23 Final thought The definition of Safety in Annex 19, if read in a general sense, is, perhaps, not limited to aviation. Indeed it could apply to many other human endeavors, and so is a natural common reference point for both Air and Space operations Safety. The state in which risks are reduced and controlled to an acceptable level.

26 Commercialization of Space Travel An ICAO Perspective Catalin Radu Deputy Director, Air Navigation Bureau ICAO

29 Commercial Spaceflight Flying Through Your Airspace Soon Joram Verstraeten - NLR Dr. Andy Quinn - Saturn SMS Ltd

30 The suborbital players

31 The suborbital players

32 Point-to-Point (P2P)

33 Spaceports

34 Need to consider oversight UN: OOSA COPUOS ITU Protozone Plus (non-orbital) > 100 <150/160km?

35 What Standards?

36 The IAASS International Association for the Advancement of Space Safety (IAASS) Commercial Human Spaceflight Safety Technical Committee Suborbital Safety Guidance Manual

37 Acceptable levels of safety Fatal accident rate accident per 1M flights P2P - somewhere here? 1-10 / 1M - acceptable? North Sea Helicopter ops - 2 / 1M Current suborbital vehicles - somewhere here? 100 / 1M flights - acceptable? Space shuttle - 15,000 / 1 M

38 Acceptable levels from the start Source Nelson, H. (2012). Panel discussion, Technology and its impact on safety, Presentation at the 18th Airbus Flight Safety Conference, Berlin, Germany.

39 Summary Spaceplanes will be flying through your airspace soon Spaceflight is risky Hypersonic P2P aircraft should be certified vehicles Appropriate changes to standards and new guidance material will be required
