MARK SIRANGELO, OTHER PANELISTS TO LOOK AT
HOW UNIVERSITY RESEARCH FUELS SPACEFLIGHT GROWTH
Mark Sirangelo, Executive Vice President of Sierra Nevada Corporation and Chair of the Commercial Space Federation, will join a panel of distinguished experts at ISPCS 2009 to look at how university aerospace research programs are advancing the growth of commercial space, Chairwoman Patricia Hynes announced this week.
“From the day he first became involved in Space Dev Corp., through its merger with Starsys Research and its sale to Sierra Nevada, Mark has embodied the progress the commercial spaceflight industry has made in focusing on cost effective and innovative results,” Hynes said.
Sirangelo will be joined by Panel Chair Tom Burton, Department Head, Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at New Mexico State University; Daniel Rasky, Director, Space Portal, and NASA Research Park Senior Scientists; and Peggy Morse, Director, Strategic Missile Systems, at Boeing Integrated Defense Systems.
