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 FY 1995, the program will complete transition to
a new program structure, and will begin flight hardware fabrication. Activities are well underway to support crew training, payload processing, and hardware element processing requirements. Hardware fabrication activities will continue in
FY 1996. Final fabrication of flight hardware will be the
focus of the program. First element launch is scheduled for
late 1997.
US/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 1994, activities supporting these missions included
mission planning, preparation of experiment hardware and
procurement of the Shuttle hardware required to enable docking of the Space Shuttle to the Mir Space Station. In 1994,
the first Russian cosmonaut flew on the Space Shuttle. In
1995, a U.S. astronaut will spend several months on the
Mir Space Station, and the first rendezvous and docking mission between the Space Shuttle and Mir will take place. In
FY 1996, three Shuttle flights to Mir are planned. Flight
hardware to conduct experiments will be carried on these
flights.
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. Four Spacelab flights are

planned for 1995 and two Spacelab flights are planned for
FY 1996.
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.
During FY 1994, eight successful Shuttle missions were accomplished, including two Space Radar Lab missions and the
highly successful Hubble Space Telescope repair/revisit mission. In 1995, seven Shuttle missions are planned, including
the first docking mission between the Space Shuttle and the
Russian Mir Space Station. In FY 1996, seven Shuttle missions are planned. Continued emphasis will be placed on enhancements to the safety and performance of the Space Shuttle.

This appropriation provides for the research and development activities of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Funds are included for the construction, maintenance, and operation of programmatic facilities.
Performance Objectives:
Space Science:
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 FY 1995–96 on the Advanced
X-ray Astrophysics Facility in support of a launch in late
1998. Development activities on the Global Geospace
Science program are nearing completion. The first of the
two missions (Wind) was launched in November 1994 and
initial operations are underway. The second mission (Polar)
is in final testing prior to a November 1995 launch. Nearterm Shuttle payload missions include the Astro-2 mission
in early 1995 and reflight of the Tether Satellite System
in mid 1996. In Explorers, the X-ray Timing Explorer is
scheduled for launch in August 1995. Development activities continue on the Advanced Composition Explorer for
a launch in late 1997. Several significant scientific discoveries were reported in 1994 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.
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. In FY
1994, the Mars Global Surveyor mission was initiated and
launch is planned for late 1996. Funds are also requested
in FY 1996 to initiate development of future Mars missions
in FY 1998 and beyond. Development of the first two Dis-

NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION

covery class missions, Mars Pathfinder and the Near-Earth
Asteroid Rendezvous, were also initiated in FY 1994 and
are scheduled for launch in 1996. Initial funding is also
included beginning in FY 1996 for future Discovery class
missions. Preliminary studies are currently underway to
prepare for the New Millennium Spacecraft initiative to
begin in FY 1996. 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 will arrive 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 FY 1994, experiment
and research activities were conducted in support of the International Materials Laboratory (IML)–2 mission, and a U.S.
Microgravity Payload mission (USMP–2). In FY 1995, the
first Shuttle rendezvous mission with the Russian Space Station Mir will include experiments in life and microgravity
sciences. In addition, a U.S. microgravity Spacelab (USML–
2) flight will be conducted in FY 1995. An aggressive four
year cooperative program with the National Institute of Child
Health and Human Development will begin in FY 1995. Research activities will focus on use of NASA’s bioreactor technology in the area of AIDS research. In FY 1996, experiments
will be conducted on the Life and Microgravity Spacelab mission (LMS) and on the third U.S. Microgravity Payload mission (USMP–3). Cooperative research with Russia will continue, including two module missions to the Mir Space Station
carrying life and microgravity hardware.
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. In FY 1995, development of the first
Earth Observing Satellite (EOS) Mission for launch in 1998
and development of the Earth Observing System Data Information System (EOSDIS) will continue. Mission to Planet
Earth released EOSDIS Version 0 to the public in August
1994. Launch of the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer
(TOMS) as a free-flying Earth probe is planned for FY 1995.
Launch of TOMS and the NASA Scatterometer is planned
for 1996. The release of EOSDIS Version 1 in 1996 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. During FY 1994, significant augmentations to the
Advanced Subsonic Technology Program took place and funding for continuation of all program elements is included in
FY 1995 and FY 1996. Phase II of the High Speed Research
program began in FY 1994 and is increasing in FY 1995
and FY 1996 and is 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 and, in FY 1995 and FY 1996,
will continue its 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.
In FY 1994, two proposals were selected for the Advanced
Small Satellite Technology Initiative (SSTI). The initial two
SSTI spacecraft will be developed and launched within 24
months for an average of about $55 million each (including
launch costs). Launch of these spacecraft, called ‘‘Lewis’’ and
‘‘Clark’’ is scheduled for mid-1996. In FY 1995 and 1996,
the Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) program will fund 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.
Launch Services.—In FY 1995, this program provides expendable launch vehicles to launch selected NASA satellites
to earth orbit and on to planetary missions. In FY 1996,
funds for launch vehicles are included in program budgets.
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 FY 19941996, 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
undergradute 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.

No budget authority is being requested for FY 1996. Instead
NASA will use prior year authority to continue refining design options and working with industry on joint financing
arrangements in order to support a possible funding request
in the future. The supplemental schedule printed in this volume shows the estimated obligations and outlays.

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 FY
1994-FY 1996, 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 FY 1994-FY 1996, the networks and
support systems which accomplish these tasks will continue
operation. In FY 1995, the seventh Tracking and Data Relay
Satellite (TDRS) will be launched. Completion of the upgrade
of the TDRS White Sands Complex and early development
of the TDRS Replenishment Spacecraft will occur in FY 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
repair, rehabilitation and modification of administrative facilities, environmental compliance and restoration activities, the
design of facilities projects, and the advanced planning related
to future facilities needs. In FY 1994-FY 1996, activities in
support of maintenance and repair of administrative facilities
at the NASA centers will be conducted, as well as activities
in support of environmental compliance and restoration requirements.

NASA is planning to spend roughly $1 billion over the
next five years to build three communications satellites to
link some government spacecraft in orbit to the users and
operators on the ground. It is possible that commercial firms
could supply some part, perhaps even a major part, of these
requirements. The impact to current spacecraft users will be
examined prior to full commitment to commercial services.
It is estimated that this proposal would achieve savings starting in FY 1997.

ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
øINCLUDING

TRANSFER OF FUNDS¿

øOf the budgetary resources available to the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration during fiscal year 1995, $59,003,000 are
permanently canceled. The Administrator of the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration shall allocate the amount of budgetary
resources canceled among the agency’s accounts available for procurement and procurement-related expenses. Amounts available for procurement and procurement-related expenses in each such account
shall be reduced by the amount allocated to such account. For the
purposes of this paragraph, the definition of ‘‘procurement’’ includes
all stages of the process of acquiring property or services, beginning
with the process of determining a need for a product or service
and ending with contract completion and closeout, as specified in
41 U.S.C. 403(2).¿
Notwithstanding the limitation on the availability of funds appropriated for ‘‘Human space flight’’, ‘‘Science, aeronautics and technology’’, or ‘‘Mission support’’ by this appropriations Act, when any
activity has been initiated by the incurrence of obligations for construction of facilities as authorized by law, the amount available
for such activity shall remain available until expended. This provision
does not apply to the amounts appropriated in ‘‘Mission support’’
pursuant to the authorization for repair, rehabilitation and modification of facilities, minor construction of new facilities and additions
to existing facilities, and facility planning and design.
Notwithstanding the limitation on the availability of funds appropriated for ‘‘Human space flight’’, ‘‘Science, aeronautics and technology’’, or ‘‘Mission support’’ by this appropriations Act, the amounts
appropriated for construction of facilities shall remain available until
September 30, ø1997¿ 1998.
Notwithstanding the limitation on the availability of funds appropriated for ‘‘Mission support’’ and ‘‘Inspector General’’, amounts made
available by this Act for personnel and related costs and travel expenses of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration shall
remain available until September 30, ø1995¿ 1996 and may be used

907

to enter into contracts for training, investigations, cost associated
with personnel relocation, and for other services, to be provided during the next fiscal year.
øNo amount appropriated pursuant to this or any other Act may
be used for the lease or construction of a new contractor-funded
facility for exclusive use in support of a contract or contracts with
the National Aeronautics and Space Administration under which the
Administration would be required to substantially amortize through
payment or reimbursement such contractor investment, unless an
appropriations Act specifies the lease or contract pursuant to which
such facilities are to be constructed or leased or such facility is
otherwise identified in such Act. The Administrator may authorize
such facility lease or construction, if he determines, in consultation
with the Committees on Appropriations, that deferral of such action
until the enactment of the next appropriations Act would be inconsistent with the interest of the Nation in aeronautical and space activities.¿
The unexpired balances of prior appropriations to NASA for activities for which funds are provided under this Act may be transferred
to the new account established for the appropriation that provides
funds for such activity under this Act. Balances so transferred may
be merged with funds in the newly established account and thereafter
may be accounted for as one fund to be available for the same purposes and under the same terms and conditions.
øThe fourth proviso in the paragraph under the heading ‘‘Science,
space, and technology education trust fund’’ in the Department of
Housing and Urban Development—Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1989 (Public Law 101–404, 102 Stat. 1014, 1028) is amended by striking out ‘‘for a ten-year period’’ and inserting in lieu thereof
‘‘hereafter’’.¿
øNotwithstanding any other provision of law or regulation, the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration shall convey, without
reimbursement, to the City of Slidell, Louisiana, all rights, title,
and interest of the United States in the property, including all improvements thereon, known as the Slidell Computer Complex, and
consisting of approximately 14 acres in the City of Slidell, St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana: Provided, That appropriated funds may be
used to effect this conveyance: Provided further, That in consideration
of this conveyance, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration may require such other terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate to protect the interests of the United
States.¿ (Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban
Development, and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1995.)
