Space program of China - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The agency responsible for the launches is the China National Space Administration, an agency within the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. Among their stated longer term goals are: improve their standing in the world of space science; and establish a manned space system.

First Chinese manned space flight within three months: official Sun was speaking at the ongoing China Centennial Aviation Forum, which he organized in his dual capacity as the secretary general of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense (COSTIND). One official at the forum said that China's first-ever astronaut had still not been selected, statements which appear to back up speculation that a decision on who would become the first Chinese national in space would only come on the day of the launch. China announced last year that some 12 astronauts were being trained for the flight, and that the group would be first whittled down to three prospective pilots and then a final candidate would be chosen around launch time. www.spacedaily.com /2003/030916112710.3lssg42r.html   (619 words)

Nat' Academies Press, Energy Research at DOE: Was It Worth It? Energy Efficiency and Fossil Energy Research 1978 to 2000 (2001) Early government interest in MHD was directed at developing power sources for space and military applications and centered in agencies such as the Department of the Interior’s Office of Coal Research, the National Science Foundation, the Atomic Energy Commission, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the Department of Defense. Gas turbine combined cycles have become the accepted power generation technology for the utility industry, and their efficiencies are projected under the DOE ATS program to reach 60 percent. While a conventional generator relies on the copper windings of the rotating conductor, an MHD generator uses the gaseous products of combustion that are ionized by raising them to sufficiently high temperatures in seeded conductive material. www.nap.edu /books/0309074487/html/190.html   (1261 words)

ArmsControlWonk an arms control weblog: PLA Procurement Website Nie chose the latter, becoming the first head of the China’s Commission of Science Technology, and Industry for National Defense (COSTIND), eventually stacking COSTIND with enough family members and cronies to make Dick Cheney blush. China’s defense R&D sector has been fantastically corrupt since the late 1950’s, when Deng Xiaoping asked Marshal Nie Rongzhen—an old buddy from their student days in Paris—whether he wanted to be mayor of Beijing or run the country’s scientific programs. The Chinese leadership finally got around to tackling this empire in the 1990s, forcing Nie’s daughter, General Nie Li, and her husband, COSTIND Chairman General Ding Henggao, into retirement in 1994 and 1996. www.armscontrolwonk.com /835/pla-procurement-website   (462 words)
