NOTE: As of March 2012, the SSSC has been replaced by the SUG .
The SOFIA Science Steering Committee (SSSC) provides scientific input on a broad range of matters concerning the SOFIA program to the Science Mission Operations (SMO) Director. Whenever multiple ways of approaching an issue are available, the SSSC has been consulted by the SMO in order to clarify which of the options has the most desirable scientific impact. The SSSC has also been a conduit for the interests, priorities and concerns of the scientific community.
