Full Center Proposal (Phase I) for an I/UCRC for Advanced Space Technologies Research and Engineering Center 0832517 University of Florida; Norman Fitz-Coy 0832508 North Carolina State University; William Edmonson The purpose of this proposal is to start a new I/UCRC "Advanced Space Technologies Research and Engineering Center (ASTREC)" that will develop new knowledge, tools, hardware, and personnel required for advanced space technologies. ASTREC will establish this multi-university collaboration between two research institutions in the southeast, University of Florida (UF) and North Carolina State University (NCSU). The proposed research aims at advancing knowledge by performing multidisciplinary research and providing breakthrough technologies in each of the satellite subsystems for pico/-nano-class of satellites. By focusing on small satellites of the pico- and nano-class drives the technology research to be constrained by low power, mass and volume. Through a Design-Build-Fly (DBF) philosophy, the center?s research mission is to perform leading-edge research that is industry driven to produce technologically small satellites and components, which will be on-orbit validated and demonstrated. The proposed work is important because it seeks to develop more agile space assets through developing innovative technologies and processes. Due to the diverse technologies that make up a satellite, those involved in the center?s research will come from engineering, the physical sciences and biological sciences.The efforts of ASTREC will provide the space industry with a class of satellites that cost less to develop and build without becoming technologically dated at launch. Through the success of its DBF philosophy, ASTREC will assist in the transformation of the space industry from risk adverse towards risk tolerant design. The Center plans to engage K-20 students in all aspects of small satellite design through hands-on cradle-to-grave experience to create the next generation of "rocket scientists". ASTREC has a strong diversity plan that ensures the participation of underrepresented groups in all levels of the Center. Extensive experience in fostering participation of underrepresented in research and education will add value to the center.

先进空间技术研究和工程中心I/UCRC的完整中心提案（第一阶段）;佛罗里达大学; Norman Fitz-Coy;北卡罗来纳州州立大学; William Edmonson 该提案的目的是启动一个新的I/UCRC“先进空间技术研究和工程中心（ASTREC）”，该中心将开发先进空间技术所需的新知识、工具、硬件和人员。ASTREC将在东南部的两个研究机构佛罗里达大学（UF）和北卡罗来纳州州立大学（NCSU）之间建立这种多大学合作。 拟议的研究旨在通过进行多学科研究和为皮科/纳米级卫星的每个卫星子系统提供突破性技术来增进知识。由于侧重于皮科和纳米级的小型卫星，技术研究受到低功率、质量和体积的限制。通过设计-建造-飞行（DBF）哲学，中心？印度航天局的研究使命是进行尖端研究，这种研究是由工业驱动的，目的是生产技术上小型的卫星和部件，这些卫星和部件将在轨道上得到验证和演示。拟议的工作很重要，因为它寻求通过开发创新技术和流程来开发更灵活的空间资产。 由于构成卫星的技术多种多样，参与中心的人？ASTREC的研究将来自工程、物理科学和生物科学。ASTREC的努力将为航天工业提供一类开发和建造成本较低的卫星，而不会在发射时技术过时。 通过其DBF理念的成功，ASTREC将协助空间工业从风险不利向风险容忍设计的转变。 该中心计划让K-20学生参与小型卫星设计的各个方面，通过从摇篮到坟墓的实践经验，培养下一代“火箭科学家”。ASTREC有一个强大的多样性计划，确保代表性不足的群体参与中心的所有级别。在促进代表性不足的人参与研究和教育方面的丰富经验将为该中心增加价值。
