Team is a team of Air Force and NASA personnel working together to develop an
operationally responsive spacelift capability for the nation.

the Air Force and NASA, One Team is engaged in a 120-day study to create a roadmap for the
development of operationally responsive spacelift, with a focus on reusable vehicles, that
provides utility for both Air Force and NASA mission needs. The team is further organized
