I think that you are going to see our recommendations to get to those problems, that NASA take more of the lead.

I agree. I would echo what Senator Vitter said about the out-years numbers, and I have shared my dissatisfaction with Dr. Orzag and Dr. Holdren about that.

That sounds very promising if you can do data links and bring them back.

There are a considerable number of folks, yours truly included, that feel like that that is not a realistic flight schedule.

It was Senator Hutchison who, about 5 years ago, in the NASA authorization bill had first designated the Space Station as a National Laboratory.

But that was not what the legislation said. The legislation said that $150 million was funding for COTS-D.

I want to ask you a question specifically about the workforce at the Kennedy Space Center.

But you would never sacrifice any question of safety to get those six off.

We had a unique opportunity... to craft a COTS-D plan that would have funded the program at the level that the folks needed.

What we are going to increasingly do with this new administration is hold NASA accountable.

When can we expect that report?

When is that design review?
