Jim Bridenstine: “Having a Gateway in orbit around the Moon is important for a lot of reasons.”

The goal to get to the Moon needs to be bipartisan; it has to be apolitical.

As Representative Aderholt said, if we can't land on the Moon within 5 years, we need to change the organization.

I think, Mr. Ranking Member, that would put us in a position to make landing in 2024 very, very difficult.

I have been very clear with everybody I have talked to on both sides of the aisle, the goal should be additional resources, not cannibalizing one part of NASA to feed another part of NASA.
