Commercial Crew Program
WWW.NASAWATCH.COM
CCP Objective
CCP is leading NASA’s efforts to develop an American-made
commercial capability for crew transportation and rescue services
to the ISS following this year's retirement of the space shuttle fleet
– Kennedy Space Center will host the
program office dedicated to enabling
commercial human spaceflight
capabilities.
– Program Manager (PM) will
reside at KSC
– Deputy Program Manager
located at JSC
Program Mission
– Manage the investment in the
development of commercial end-toend space transportation systems
– Manage the CTS (Crew Transportation
System) certification process
– Lead the technical and programmatic
partner integration and approval
functions

Commercial Crew Development (CCDev)
•
The NASA Recovery Act stimulus funding,
included $50M to stimulate efforts within the
private sector to develop and demonstrate
technologies that enable commercial human
spaceflight capabilities
•
On February 1, 2010 five partners were
announced and received funding:
– Blue Origin
– Boeing
– Paragon
– Sierra Nevada Corporation
– United Launch Alliance (ULA)
•
All Agreements were concluded by December
2010, with the exception of ULA and Boeing who
received no-cost extensions to April 2011

• A successful Commercial Crew Program will:
– Transform human spaceflight for future
generations
– Result in safe, reliable, cost effective crew
transportation to LEO and in support of ISS
– Free NASA’s limited resources for beyond-LEO
capabilities
– Reduce reliance on foreign systems
