Combined with the $1 billion provided to the agency in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, this represents a total increase of more than $2.4 billion over the 2008 level. • Funds a program of space-based research that supports the Administration’s commitment to deploy a global climate change research and monitoring system. • Funds a robust program of space exploration involving humans and robots. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration will return humans to the Moon while also supporting a vigorous program of robotic exploration of the solar system and universe. • Funds the safe flight of the Space Shuttle through the vehicle’s retirement at the end of 2010. An additional flight will be conducted if it can be completed safely before the end of 2010. • Funds the development of new space flight systems for carrying American crews and supplies to space. • Funds continued use of the International Space Station to support the agency and other Federal, commercial, and academic research and technology testing needs. • Funds aeronautics research to address aviation safety, air traffic control, noise and emissions reduction, and fuel efficiency.
