The Senate Commerce Committee is scheduled to consider its version of a NASA authorization bill in an executive session slated for 2:30 pm EDT today. The committee, though, isn’t likely to spend much time on the bill: it is one of 22 items on the agenda for the hearing, including 12 other bills and nine […] NASA has a number of opportunities for the future, including ways to partner with the private sector, but those effort face challenges that are often in the form of opposition from Congress, NASA deputy administrator Lori Garver said Friday. Garver, giving a keynote speech Friday at the NewSpace 2013 conference—an event with a particular focus […] Last week, Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) announced that he was introducing in the Senate a version of a NASA authorization bill that would be different in many respects than the House version. That Senate bill got lost in the debate over that House bill, as well as consideration of separate appropriations bills in the House […] With the passage on Thursday of the Commerce, Justice, and Science (CJS) appropriations bill by the full Senate Appropriations Committee, it’s possible now to compare that bill’s funding levels for various NASA accounts with the House version of the same bill and the administration’s original fiscal year 2014 budget request (amounts below in millions of […] The House Science Committee is holding its markup of a NASA authorization bill this morning (the meeting has been delayed two hours to 11:15 am EDT.)

Bill Nelson (D-FL), chairman of the space subcommittee of the Senate Commerce Committee, announced Wednesday that he will be formally introducing later in the day the Senate’s version of a NASA authorization bill that will differ sharply from the House version. Nelson, speaking at the luncheon of the Future Space 2013 conference in Washington […] In contrast to their House counterparts, Senate appropriators appears to be more generous with NASA, at least at the overall level. A summary of the Commerce, Justice, and Science (CJS) appropriations bill, marked up with little fanfare by the CJS subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee Tuesday morning, reveals the committee is proposing $18 billion […] On Tuesday, the House Appropriations Committee released the committee report accompanying its version of a Commerce, Justice, and Science (CJS) appropriations bill for fiscal year 2014, in advance of the bill’s markup by the full committee on Wednesday morning. The report adds details on spending levels for key programs within the accounts specified in the […] While House and Senate appropriators are working on fiscal year 2014 appropriations bills to fund NASA, the agency is still working with Congress for agreement on an operating plan for fiscal year 2013 (which, yes, ends in just two and a half months.)
