Answer
Ken Tenbusch is the NASA deputy partner manager working with Sierra Nevada Corp. (SNC) for the agency's Commercial Crew Integrated Capability (CCiCap) initiative. Through phases with aerospace industry partners, NASA's Commercial Crew Program (CCP) is leading the nation's effort to facilitate commercial vehicle development and certification to enable the safe transportation of NASA astronauts to and from the International Space Station and other low Earth orbit destinations. During CCiCap, SNC will make significant progress developing and testing its integrated Dream Chaser spacecraft and United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket combination.
Before becoming deputy partner manager for SNC at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Tenbusch was the NASA partner manager for Alliant Techsystems (ATK) during CCP's Commercial Crew Development Round 2 (CCDev2). In that role, he led the Partner Integration Team, called the PIT Crew, that worked closely with ATK while the company developed its Liberty launch vehicle.
