This is a type of lightning known as a red sprite — a phenomenon that has rarely been photographed in this
amount of detail. Some thunderstorms produce sprites, but most do not. Photo credit: Stephane Vetter (TWAN)

Cadre des recommandations
Bien que l'AARO soit à la tête de la réponse gouvernementale globale aux
PANs, le panel recommande que la NASA joue an essential role within that framework. NASA should leverage its core capabilities and expertise to determine whether it should
take a leading or supporting role in implementing a given recommendation.
Organisation de ce rapport
This report is organized as follows. We present a systematic response to the eight charge elements that formed the
Terms of Reference that NASA provided to the Independent Study Team, followed by a
detailed set of conclusions and recommendations. These responses stemmed from a series of sub-panel reports that the
entire team deliberated in full at the public meeting held , all of which are included as
work products toward the end of this report for full public transparency.
