He is a great american, great patriot, he has served nasa for 42 years. We love him. It is also true that we are moving to a new era in human spaceflight. Where the administration is interested in going fast, we are interested in doing things a different way. We believe it is important to have new leadership. It was entirely my decision. At the end of the day, we need to be very clear that nasa is committed to cost and schedule. Safety is the highest priority, but we are committed to cost and schedule. I thought it was important to make this change at this time. A quick follow on that. You are coming at a time when we are about to celebrate the 50th anniversary of apollo 11. About to fly crews from american soil for the first time. As you mentioned, the Artemis Program of returning to the moon. You reassigned ahead of human exploration. I was curious if you could give us some insight. Why was that done at this moment . Jim we are landing on the south pole of the moon with the next man

Test. And now, thats right, i cant go to the airport because i couldnt get my code without pacing the test. Code. Mr. Hubbard . Until Technology Catches up public awareness. I would say the most efficient is an Industry Based standard so we dont have to go down a regulatory path. I very much like that idea of Industry Standard versus government edict. One quick question because i see im down to 52 seconds and i guess this would be directed to you, mr.

And i hope the administration will change its posture and decide in the future that it is actually going to support sls and orion and keep them on schedule, because their proposals to cut sls and orion every single year is not helping us achieve the great goals that
