Charles [Chuck] Osborn was recently accepted as a working member of committee E21 by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). ASTM International is one of the largest voluntary standards development organizations in the world, a trusted source for technical standards for materials, products, systems and services. Known for their high technical quality and market relevancy, ASTM International standards have an important role in the information infrastructure that guides design, manufacturing and trade in the global economy. ASTM Committee E21 on Space Simulation and Applications of Space Technology was formed in 1963. E21 meets in conjunction with other technical societies such as Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST). These standards play an important role in evaluating contamination sources and prevention in cleanrooms and other facilities and as they may impact performance of equipment in the space environment, in promoting space system contamination controls and such technologies for the public benefit. | ||
