## ITAR for LISA

- Kevin N. Miller

## NASA-ESA LISA LOA

_**KEY NASA RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THE LOA**_
-     There is a signed LOA between ESA and NASA (June 2001), that is being updated to reflect changes in schedule and activities.  The primary NASA responsibilities are:
- Designate a LISA study phase manager to work with an ESA-designated LISA study phase manager in the implementation of this Agreement
- Conduct, jointly with ESA, concept studies to define responsibilities for technology demonstration and subsequent LISA mission including collaborative mission design activities
- Conduct technology development for a joint ESA/NASA LISA Mission and a technology demonstration mission

## NASA-ESA LISA LOA

**KEY NASA RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THE LOA (II)**
- Define, jointly with ESA, system level interface requirements and specifications for the technology demonstration and LISA missions such as Interface requirements Documents (IRD), detailed Interface Control Documents (ICD), Assembly, Integration and Verification (AIV) requirements and provide ESA with technical information and documentation relative to the NASA Test Package needed by ESA to confirm engineering compatibility with the LISA technology demonstration mission SMART-2
- Define, jointly with ESA, measurable objectives for the LISA technology demonstration mission
- Select a NASA Co-Chair and ten NASA-sponsored scientists to participate in the LISA International Science Team [LIST], as well as additional NASA-sponsored scientists, as required, to serve on technical working groups under the direction of the LIST

## NASA LISA Project ITAR Plan

- A draft ITAR plan has been prepared by the Project
- This plan has been reviewed twice by Mr. John Hall, the NASA Export Administrator
- Mr. Hall and his technical advisors have also been briefed on the Project’s I&T Flow Plan as well as the strategy for using the ITTs, and have no issue with this approach
- Each step has been carefully reviewed with Agency ITAR experts before moving forward:
- Discussed and showed models to Mr. Hall before sending to ESA
- Discussed LISA web site and what could be posted/not posted with Mr. Hall
- The Project will continue to work closely with the Agency and Center Export Control offices
