Russia and China have the largest, most capable space programs of all countries in the world outside of the United States. Therefore, the status of their programs and endeavors in space missions and actions are of the upmost concern to our nation and global scientific achievement. The state of current events point to a future of vast changes in the global space community due to Russia’s mired Roscosmos State Corporation for Space Activities and China’s ever advancing National Space Administration

everyday lives for granted that were a direct result of space exploration. This is not limited to technological advancements, but reflected in art, literature, film, technical innovation, global partnerships, and influenced culture on a global scale. Technology is a part of daily life and Space exploration continues to be the catalyst for advancement. Satellite technology is one example.

The advancement of UAV abilities and technology in recent years has promoted substantial scientific and commercial research into the application and management of this technology. In some areas of development UAV capability has surpassed the regional flight policies and capabilities of manned operations. One of the predominant implementations of UAVs pertains to automated persistent monitoring and surveillance (Nikhil Nigam 2014). Automated persistent surveillance is the use of sensors to continuously

In addition to staging emergency crew, the ISS could stage mission specialists for missions traversing in or near LEO. One example of this is the Near Earth Asteroid (NEA) retrieval mission called the Asteroid Redirect Mission (ARM). The current ARM mission plan is to dispatch an unmanned spacecraft collect and redirect a boulder from a NEA to lunar orbit14. Once there, a human mission would be dispatched to study the asteroid. As the drive of the mission would be primarily scientific discovery,
