The folks that work at NASA do it because they absolutely love it, they're committed to what we do, it's unique in the world and everybody knows it and they want to be a part of it.
the answer is the 2-week study is complete, and we looked at all of the commercial options, and we took nothing off the table.
As an agency, we're in the lead in a lot of different ways. As a country, we're in the lead in a lot of different ways.
Oh, I will tell you it will not be successful if we're cutting other programs because we have to have bipartisan support.
We're going to go to the moon sustainably. This time when we go, we're actually going to stay.
It's an important issue. NASA has a role to play under the President's Space Policy Directive-3.
Congress is going to do what it's going to do, but this means a lot to people in my State, and in future years I hope it gets a little bit more respect and thought from this Administration.
If there's a way to get a factor of 10 reduction in cost, I'm all for it, and I'd love to hear your ideas on it.
That's what NASA should be doing. And we look forward to advancing that agenda.
The President and the Vice President determined that they wanted to go faster than that, so they gave us an objective to meet that deadline of 2024.
And we are, sir, keeping those programs going, and we're moving rapidly to get those programs online.
NASA is very committed to STEM education. We are very committed to achieving, you know, better outcomes for the United States of America when it comes to producing the next-generation scientist, technologist, engineer, and mathematician.
Not only is it exciting, it's necessary and noble, the work that's being done.
The moon is the best place to prove those capabilities and technologies. The sooner we can achieve that objective, the sooner we can move on to Mars.
