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.
As Representative Aderholt said, if we can't land on the Moon within 5 years, we need to change the organization.
The goal here is to have as much as possible we want NASA to be a customer of services.
I do think this goes back to Representative Cartwright's question regarding kind of new approaches.
