Nasa peerreviewed research is needed. You asked about critical areas of research. The life and physical sciences survey which was completed in 2011 at Congress Request summarized the sequence 6 summarized an sequenced 65 high priority tasks. Furthermore, the study created two research plans. One with the goal of building a Research Enterprise and the other with a goal of a Human Mission to mars. More about those goals in a moment. You asked about priorities. Prioritizing i. S. S. Research isnt a new concept. In fact, we been working on that problem for close to 15 years. But the key question for prioritization isnt scientific. Its programmatic. It is Something Like this. Shall Discovery Research or fundamental research or Translational Research take precedence in the mature years of the i. S. S. Program . The answer to that question has to be provided by government. Once those programmatic priorities are sequenced can we prioritize the research . Absolutely. The l. P. S. Survey provide
I yield. Sort of like those people who think it might have been a good idea to let puerto rico be independent, mr. Brooks. Thank you, mr. Chairman. Ive been pondering American History with europe while weve been listening to your testimony and q a back and forth. And it seems after world war ii for 47 years when there was not a European Community our relationship with europe was good. Then we had the eu created seven years worth of phase in and the Euro Currency comes into play in roughly 1999 and now 16 years thereafter and our relationship has been good. So either way, americas relationship with europe has done well with and without the euro. So to me, the European Union issue is more of a focal point for the european nations and they should be the deciders of their fate. And im curious about a comment that was made that the European Union is better for the usa, quote end quote. And my question is, why . What can you share for us that would help convince me that it is in americas bes
Iss. Hover, while the range of iss uses is expanding the resources to support them are not. Funding for the iss Research Represents a mere 12 of the overall iss budget. Constraints on Cargo Transportation, as well as Available Power and precious crew time limit what research can be accomplished at the station. In that regard i know many of us want to understand the implications of cargo resupply operations. Crew operations and the sustainability of the station. In addition, mr. Chairman, theres critical work to be done on the iss and Human Health Research and Technology Development that needs to be carried out if were going to make progress toward the longterm goal of sending humans to mars. In january 2014, the Obama Administration proposed to extend iss operations until at least 2024. The administration has three rationales for the extension. To complete iss research that supports Long Duration Human Missions beyond lower earth orbit to garner societal benefits. Some of which we see
The National Book festival Live Saturday starting at 10 a. M. Eastern on cspan2s booktv. Next, scientists predict some of the technological and a bimetal changes that may occur over the next century such as Artificial Intelligence, brain augmentation, Climate Change, the future spaceflight at the potential for extraterrestrial life. University of colorado posted this event. Hello. All right, so the first thing ive only done this to my son, i mess it up. You cast or not the queen of technology. You guys have cell phone, turn it off. No cell phones ring, no lights flashing. Here we go. Phones off. You know how i am about phones. All right. He we go. So the topic today is my in the 22nd century, and you know im an engineer. Theres a phone on back to turn off the light or a computer or something. Thank you. When people talk about the future of the 22nd century on sort of like i go into a engineer mode and go well, what are you going to back cosmic rays when you fly to outer space and what
He we go. So the topic today is my in the 22nd century, and you know im an engineer. Theres a phone on back to turn off the light or a computer or something. Thank you. When people talk about the future of the 22nd century on sort of like i go into a engineer mode and go well, what are you going to back cosmic rays when you fly to outer space and what he going to do about the time problem . Im kind of a wet blanket. But these three panelists are very wellqualified with actual facts to talk about the 22nd century and what we might anticipate. So our three speakers, going to induce an indie order adequately speak and the new get ten to 15 minutes and if they talk too long, i cut them off. So our first speaker is David Grinspoon whos in astrobiologist which is super cool. Its like you do, biology space. Very weird. So thats what he does. Our second speaker, Michelle Thaller is director of science for communications at nasa so shed is all about the Rocket Science program. And our third spe
