“It’s truly an honor,” Dr. Davis noted, “to help promote the defense of our Nation through strong space and missile defense programs. Through a common understanding of the importance of space and missile defense systems to our national defense, we can encourage our nation and its citizens to place space and missile defense in the forefront of our advocacy efforts, fiscal budgets and technological efforts. The ASMDA’s charter allows us to come together to do just that.”
