E59- Inside Digital Engineering and the US Air Force

 What is digital engineering and how could it change the Air Force and Space Force acquisition cycles?  Digital engineering – rapid engineering using computer-generated integration for design, build, test – may be the path forward to the military becoming more agile in fielding and maintaining new space systems. Join Aerospace general manager Ms. Rosalind Lewis as she talks to Ms. Kristen Baldwin (Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Science, Technology and Engineering) and Maj. Gen. Kimberly Crider, USAF (Acting US Space Force Chief Technology and Innovation Officer) about what is needed to make digital engineering a reality for DOD, AF and USSF in this special 90 minute episode. The Space Policy Show is produced by The Aerospace Corporation’s Center for Space Policy and Strategy.  It is a virtual series covering a broad set of topics that span across the space enterprise.  CSPS brings together experts from within Aerospace, the government, academia, business, nonprofits, and the national labs.  The show and their podcasts are an opportunity to learn about and to stay engaged with the larger space policy community.
