NASA has selected Aerospace Corp. to run the Consortium for Space Mobility and ISAM Capabilities.
ISAM–which stands for in-space servicing, assembly and manufacturing–is a fast-growing part of the space industry. NASA sees a need to coordinate work across government, industry, research and academic entities, said Trudy Kortes, director of technology demonstrations for the agency’s Space Technology Mission Directorate. Kortes spoke at the Space Symposium here on April 19.
