AMOS Keynote Speaker: Diane Howard, Director, Commercial Space Policy at National Space Council
On Commercial Space Policy and Innovation
-American leadership relies upon private sector Innovation... spd3 opened up discussions about what is inherently governmental about how to integrate commercial capabilities.
-Operations are increasingly impacted by mounting congestion and unpredictability in space. We must consider whether and how regulatory measures can ensure the sustainability of space for future Generations.
On Space Sustainability and Regulation
-Our work has been in consideration of space sustainability as novel capabilities and novel space operations are being placed in space. We must consider how they impact the sustainability of the space environment.
-We must consider whether and how regulatory measures can ensure the sustainability of space for future Generations.
On Interagency and International Cooperation
-United States government industry and our International partners to develop and Implement open, transparent and credible International standards to establish the foundation for Global Space Traffic coordination.

Importance of Adaptation and Flexibility in Policy

-It really is all about relationships. I don't understand policy by working with the Implementation establishment.
On Challenges and the Importance of Perseverance
-Some of this change results from unsustainable practices on Earth, some from our heightened awareness and connectivity... so we need to keep our heads down, focus on our missions, be patient when necessary and keep our hope alive.
