NASA is at a crossroads, facing challenges due to retirements, budget constraints and an intense focus on current missions, neglecting future needs.
Norman Augustine, the report's author, warns that depending on private industry for emerging technologies could compromise NASA's in-house expertise and hiring of innovative engineers.
The report suggests that NASA needs to consider delaying costly missions to reallocate resources for institutional needs such as technology development and workforce training.
Bill Nelson, NASA Administrator, expressed gratitude for the report, emphasizing its alignment with NASA’s ongoing efforts to bolster infrastructure, workforce, and technology.
