SSAG Mission• Produce highly educated space systems operators
and engineers who will develop and realize the Navy's future objectives in space
• Educate Naval officers to develop relevant space expertise that will support the role of the Navy in the Space domain to secure:
‒ Victory in war fighting‒ Achieving Information Dominance‒ The Navy's role in the National Security Space Organization‒ Sustained Naval operations in contested (A2/AD)
environments
“We train you to replicate, but we educate you to reason”
- VCNO Admiral Ferguson, to NPS students on 12 Feb 14
• The NPS Space Systems Program is built upon the expertise and knowledge provided by interdisciplinary synergy• 28 Faculty Members Representing:
• Mathematics• Physics• Electrical & Computer Engineering• Mechanical/Astronautical Engineering• Information Warfare/Information Operations• Operations Research• Acquisition/Management• Defense Analysis• Meteorology• National Security Affairs
• Faculty also includes Chair Representatives from NASA, the NRO and Navy PEO Space Systems

From Draft Navy Space Plan• Focus Area 5: Navy Space Cadre
‒ Issues:“Members of the Navy Space Cadre sometimes lack the formal training and/or skills required to fill key space-related positions. In some cases, additional skills and training are needed to better prepare Space Cadre members destined for high impact positions within the Navy and Joint Force. In other cases, Space Cadre personnel with key skill sets are not being assigned to the highest priority billets.”
