        The appropriation provides for human space flight activities,
    including development of the Space Station, and operation of the Space
    Shuttle. This includes support of planned cooperative activities with
    Russia, upgrades to the performance and safety of the Space Shuttle and
    required construction projects in direct support of Space Station and
    Space Shuttle programs.

    Performance Objectives

        Space Station.--The Space Station will be an international
    laboratory in low Earth orbit on which American, Russian, Canadian,
    European, and Japanese astronauts will conduct unique scientific and
    technological investigations in a microgravity environment. During 1993,
    the program underwent a major redesign activity to lower program costs.
    In 1994, the program began making the necessary management and design
    changes to integrate the augmented capabilities made possible by the
    addition of Russia to the International Partners. In 1995, the program
    completed transition to a new program structure, and began flight
    hardware fabrication. Activities are well underway to support crew
    training, payload processing, and hardware element processing
    requirements. Hardware fabrication activities will continue in 1996.
    Final fabrication of flight hardware will be the focus of the program.
    First element launch is scheduled for late 1997.

        U.S./Russian Cooperative Program.--The United States and Russia are
    planning to undertake a program of joint space missions involving the
    Space Shuttle and Russian Mir Space Station. In 1995, a U.S. astronaut
    spent several months on the Mir Space Station, and the first rendezvous
    and docking mission between the Space Shuttle and Mir took place. In
    1996, three Shuttle flights to Mir are planned. Flight hardware to
    conduct experiments will be carried on these flights. These flights will
    provide valuable opportunities to gain experience in working with our
    Russian partners, which will be crucial to the success of building and
    operating the international Space Station. These flights will continue
    in FY 1997, with three additional flights planned, completing phase I of
    this cooperative precurser to Space Station.

        Payload and Utilization Operations.--These funds will support the
    mission planning and hardware preparation activities required to support
    the payload and experiment infrastructure, including the spacelab which
    is planned to be flown on the Space Shuttle. The Engineering and
    Technical Base provides basic engineering and technical capabilities to
    support the NASA mission assigned to the programs carried out by the
    human space flight centers. The program will support

    [[Page 906]]
    seven missions planned in 1997, including the Microgravity Sciences
    Laboratory (MSL-1) spacelab mission, three missions to the MIR and the
    Hubble Telescope maintenance mission. In addition, 13 Hitchhiker and
    several GAS payloads will be supported. In FY 1997, over 23 major and
    secondary payloads will be launched. The Spacelab program is scheduled
    to be terminated in 1998.

        Space Shuttle.--The Space Shuttle is a reusable space vehicle which
    provides several unique capabilities to the United States space program.
    These include launching spacecraft and retrieving payloads from orbit
    for reuse, servicing and repairing satellites in space, safely
    transporting humans to and from space, and operating and returning space
    laboratories. In 1995, six Shuttle missions were accomplished, including
    the first docking mission between the Space Shuttle and the Russian Mir
    Space Station. In 1996, eight Shuttle missions are planned. Activities
    supporting consolidation of Shuttle contracts into one Space Flight
    Operations contract will be completed in FY 1996. This will result in
    significant reductions in the cost of operating the Space Shuttle
    through FY 2000 and beyond, with no impact on safety, performance or
    schedule.

        In 1997, seven shuttle flights are planned. Continued emphasis will
    be placed on enhancements to the safety and performance of the Space
    Shuttle.

    istration. Funds are included for the construction, maintenance, and
    operation of programmatic facilities.

    Performance Objectives

        Space Science:
            Beginning in FY 1997, the Physics and Astronomy and Planetary
        Exploration budget line items will be consolidated into one budget
        line item, Space Science. This consolidation reflects the management
        and organization of space science activities at NASA and has no
        impact on program content.
            Physics and Astronomy.--This program contributes to our
        understanding of the origin of the universe, the fundamental laws of
        physics, and the study of the Earth's and other naturally occurring
        plasmas in the universe. Development activities will continue in
        1996-1997 on the Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility in support of
        a launch in late 1998. Development activities on the Global Geospace
        Science program are complete. The first of the two missions (Wind)
        was launched in November 1994 and initial operations are underway.
        The second mission (Polar) is due to be launched in the near future.
        Development activities continue on the Relativity (Gravity Probe-B)
        mission. The Preliminary Design Review was completed in March, 1995,
        four months ahead of schedule. In Explorers, the X-ray Timing
        Explorer was successfully launched in December 1995. Development
        activities continue on the Advanced Composition Explorer for a
        launch in late 1997. Selection of candidate missions for the Small-
        (SMEX) and Medium (MIDEX)-class Explorer programs continues. These
        missions emphasize reduced mission costs and accelerated launch
        schedules. Several significant scientific discoveries were reported
        in 1995 based on data gathered from the Hubble Space Telescope, and
        similar results are anticipated in the future. Preparations are
        currently underway for a second servicing mission in early-mid 1997
        which will provide two new science instruments and other servicing
        requirements as needed. Funding is included to continue development
        activities on the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy
        (SOFIA). A commercial operator for development and operation of the
        SOFIA aircraft is expected to be selected in 1996. Initial
        operations are expected by the end of FY 2000. Definition activities
        on the Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) and TIMED missions
        will continue.
            Planetary Exploration.--This program encompasses the scientific
        exploration of the solar system including the planets and their
        satellites, comets and asteroids, and the interplanetary medium.
        Development activities will continue on the Cassini mission to
        Saturn for launch in 1997. Development activities on the Mars Global
        Surveyor mission continue with launch planned for late 1996. Funds
        are requested for development of future Mars missions in 1998 and
        beyond. Development activities on the first two Discovery class
        missions, Mars Pathfinder and the Near-Earth Asteroid Rendezvous,
        are nearing completion, and these missions are scheduled for launch
        in 1996. The Lunar Prospector mission is scheduled for launch in
        1997. Funding is also included for future Discovery class missions.
        The New Millennium Spacecraft program is underway. This program will
        incorporate critical new technologies into a series of small test
        missions designed to greatly reduce the mass and cost of future
        science instruments and spacecraft subsystems. After a six-year
        cruise period, Galileo arrived at Jupiter in December 1995 to
        conduct a two-year tour of the planet and its moons.

        Life and Microgravity Sciences.--This program uses the microgravity
    environment of space to conduct basic and applied research to understand
    the effect of gravity on living systems and to conduct research in the
    areas of fluid physics, materials science and biotechnology. In 1995,
    the 116 day stay of an U.S. astronaut on the MIR, followed by the
    successful shuttle/MIR rendezvous, provided an excellent opportunity to
    conduct a wide range of research. Subsequent flights to MIR will provide
    the means for continuing research activities. In 1996, six major shuttle
    missions involving materials and life sciences experiments are planned.
    These missions will provide the opportunity to refine the definition,
    design and development of experiment hardware planned for use on the
    Space Station. In 1997, four major shuttle missions are planned with a
    life sciences or microgravity focus. These include the Materials
    Sciences Laboratory mission and three NASA/MIR missions. An aggressive
    four year cooperative program with the National Institute of Child
    Health and Human Development began in 1995. Research activities will
    focus on use of NASA's bioreactor technology in the area of AIDS
    research.

        Mission to Planet Earth.--The goal of this program is to gain a
    better understanding of the processes in the atmosphere, oceans, land
    surface and interior of the Earth, and to advance our knowledge of the
    interactions between these environments. The Upper Atmosphere Research
    Satellite and TOPEX, supported by ground-based and airborne
    observations, continue to gather valuable scientific data on the Earth's
    environment. In 1994, three Space Shuttle missions were flown (SRL-1 and
    -2, and ATLAS-3) with Earth Science as the major focus. Funding is
    included for the continued development of the first Earth Observing
    Satellite (EOS) Mission (EOS AM-1) for launch in 1998 and development of
    the Earth Observing System Data Information System (EOSDIS). Fabrication
    of all AM-1 spacecraft subsystems is proceeding on schedule to support
    the planned launch in mid-1998. In 1996, work on EOSDIS Version 1 will
    continue, with completion planned in FY 1997. EOSDIS will complete
    Version 2, which will support the EOSDIS and Landsat-7 missions. Launch
    of the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) as a free-flying Earth
    probe is awaiting resolution of technical issues with the Pegasus XL
    launch vehicle. Launch of TOMS and the NASA Scatterometer is planned for
    1996. The release of EOSDIS Version 1 in 1997 will support the 1997
    launch of the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM.)

        Aeronautical Research and Technology.--The goal of this program is
    to conduct aeronautical research and develop technology to strengthen
    U.S. leadership in civil and military aviation. In 1995, the Advanced
    Subsonic Technology program continued to make substantial progress, and
    funding to continue all elements is included in FY 1996 and FY 1997.
    Funding is provided to continue Phase II of the High Speed Research
    program directed at developing and verifying technologies essential for
    an economically viable and environmentally compatible future High Speed
    Civil Transport system. In the area of High Performance Computing, NASA
    has pioneered the implementation of design and simulation software on
    parallel machines. Funding is included to continue NASA's leadership
    role in this area. In the Research and Technology base, research
    activities in various aeronautical disciplines will continue to develop
    innovative concepts, the physical understanding and the theoretical and
    computation tools required for the efficient design and operation of
    advanced aerospace systems. NASA will continue to operate critical
    national facilities for aeronautical research and for support of
    industry, Department of Defense and other NASA programs.

        Space Access and Technology.--The goal of this program is to provide
    new and innovative space technologies to meet the challenges and lower
    the cost of future space missions. The initial two Small Satellite
    Technology Initiative (SSTI) missions, ``Lewis'' and ``Clark'' are
    scheduled to be launched in 1996, pending resolution of technical
    concerns with the Lockheed launch vehicle. The SSTI program continues in
    FY

    [[Page 908]]
    1977 in close coordination with New Millennium program activities
    underway in the Office of Mission to Planet Earth. In 1995 and 1996, the
    Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) program continues to pursue technology
    development and concept definition activities in support of next-
    generation reusable systems and will also fund flight demonstration of
    the DC-XA, an upgrade of the DC-X vehicle developed and flown by DOD.
    Based on results of these activities, a decision will be made by the
    President no later than December, 1996, on whether to proceed with
    design, construction and flight testing of a large-scale, reusable
    launch vehicle demonstrator, designated the X-33. Funding for this
    program continues in FY 1997.

        Mission Communication Services.--The primary goal of this
    operational program in all years is to provide highly reliable, cost-
    effective telecommunications services in support of NASA's science and
    aeronautics programs. Other U.S. agencies, international space-faring
    agencies, and U.S. commercial enterprises are also supported on a
    reimbursable basis. Ground network, space network, and mission systems
    are provided under this program in support of planetary, deep space,
    Earth-orbiting, aeronautic, and suborbital systems.

        Academic Programs.--The goal of this program is to promote
    excellence in America's education system through enhancing and expanding
    scientific and technological competence. NASA's education programs span
    from the elementary through graduate level, and are directed at students
    as well as faculty. The goal of the Minority University Research Program
    is to expand opportunities for talented students from underrepresented
    groups pursuing degrees in science and engineering, as well as
    strengthening the research capabilities of minority universities and
    colleges. In 1995-1997, the range of activities conducted under this
    program will continue to capture the interest of all students in science
    and technology, develop talented students at the undergraduate and
    graduate levels, provide research opportunities for students and faculty
    members at NASA centers and strengthen and enhance the research
    capabilities of the nation's colleges and universities.

        Funding is also provided in a government-wide account for several
    NASA science missions. These funds are included to make these programs
    consistent with OMB's fixed asset policy. This policy requires all or
    distinct portions of a fixed asset's budget authority be identified
    upfront. NASA will transition the rest of their fixed asset programs to
    be consistent with this policy in the FY 1998 budget.

        This appropriation provides for mission support, including: safety,
    reliability and quality assurance activities supporting agency programs;
    space communication services for NASA programs; salaries and related
    expenses in support of research in NASA field installations; design,
    repair, rehabilitation and modification of institutional facilities and
    construction of new institutional facilities; and other operations
    activities supporting conduct of agency programs.

        Performance Objectives:

        Safety, Reliability and Quality Assurance.--The goal of this program
    is to assure the safety and quality of NASA missions, through the
    development, implementation and oversight of Agencywide safety,
    engineering, reliability, maintainability, and quality assurance
    policies and procedures. During 1995-1997, flight program utilization of
    standards developed in this program will continue.

        Space Communication Services.--Activities included in this program
    provide for the tracking, telemetry, command, data acquisition,
    communications and data processing required by NASA flight projects. In
    1995-1997, the networks and support systems which accomplish these tasks
    will continue operation. In 1995, the seventh Tracking and Data Relay
    Satellite (TDRS) was launched. Completion of the upgrade of the TDRS
    White Sands Complex and early development of the TDRS Replenishment
    Spacecraft will occur in 1996.

        Research and Program Management.--This activity provides for the
    salaries, travel support, other personnel expenses of the entire NASA
    civil service workforce. It also includes vital support to the civil
    service workforce and to the physical plant at the Centers and at NASA
    Headquarters.

        Construction of Facilities.--This activity provides for the facility
    construction activities to preserve NASA's core infrastructure,
    environmental compliance and restoration activities, the design of
    facilities projects, and the advanced planning related to future
    facilities needs. In 1995-1997, activities in support of discrete
    projects to repair and modernize the basic infrastructure and
    institutional facilities at NASA centers will be conducted, as well as
    activities in support of environmental compliance and restoration
    requirements.

        Funding is also provided in a government-wide account for NASA's
    Tracking and Data Relay System. These funds are included to make these
    programs consistent with OMB's fixed asset policy. This policy requires
    all or distinct portions of a fixed asset's budget authority be
    identified upfront. NASA will transition the rest of their fixed asset
    programs to be consistent with this policy in the FY 1998 budget.
