as we look at this partnership of commercialization and human space travel and taking human beings to the space station and beyond it is a bit worrisome. my question but let me direct it to mr. martin, he touched in light of these recent accidents and the investigation of these accidents could you elaborates and expand on nasa's role as in making sure there is a transfer investigation? there is concern that commercial entities are investigating without nasa's roll? >> more. bill, you could go into greater detail, under the contracts, commercial space flight, the faa gives the license and under the contract contractor leaves the accident investigation review, unlike past "challenger" accident were nasa itself would convene an independent investigation. my sense is that nasa is in advisory member of orbital's and since the space x's accident review board did they are not meeting that activity. >> nasa team is participating with the faa a team and the ntsb accident board, they developed just as nasa has done and the way they disposition each fault item is all three entities, nasa, faa and ntsb and space x have to agree this item is closed and not contributing to this accident still is

mr. martin. and i now recognize miss oakley for five minutes. >> good morning, members of the sub committee. thank you for inviting me here today to discuss geo's work. as you know, the united states has spent tens of billions of dollars to own and operation the space station over the decades. the u.s. could spend more given the potential extension of operations to 2024. todayly discuss three areas. nasa's budget for ss. second challenges that could affect increased use of iss and finally steps steps that nasa and cassis can address. nasa continues to make a significant investment in iss each year. the investment is expected to increase over the next four years mainly because they will begin to found commercial fights. transportation costs will be 54% of the budget. unlike transportation costs, costs to operate and conduct research are expected to remain stable until 2028. the fundings are crew safety and transportation transportation. maintaining the fascileity and research. it can affect the funding for research. furthermore. the result of the planned extension is unknown. nasa has challenges that could affect the use of iss for science. including lim

but as we look at this partnership, commercialization and human space travel and taking human beings to the space station and beyond it is a bit worrisome. my question let me direct it to mr. martin you touched on new york light of these recent accidents and the investigation of these accidents could you elaborate and maybe expand on nasa's role in making sure there's a transparent investigation? i mean there is some concern if just the commercial entities are investigating without nasa's role. >> under the contracts, this is commercial space flight. the f.a.a. gives the license. under the contracts the contractor leads the accident investigation review, unlike past challenger accident or something like that where nasa itself would convene an independent accident investigation board my sense is that nasa is a member, sort of an advisory member of orbitals and soon to be space-x's accident review board but they're not leading that activity. perhaps bill could go deeper on that. >> the nasa team is participating directly with the f.a.a. team and ntsb on the space-x accident board. they developed a fault tree and the way they disposition -- they position all fault items is nasa f.a.

as a look at this partnership of commercialization and human space travel and taking human beings to the space station and beyond, it is a bit worrisome. my question, maybe let me directed to mr. martin. detached on come in light of these recent accidents -- you touched on these accidents could elaborate and maybe expand on nasa's role in making sure there's a transparent investigation. there is some concern if it just the commercial entities are investigating without nasa's role. >> built i think it go into about greater detail. under the contracts, this is a commercial space flight, the faa gets the license and under the contract, the contract elites the accident investigation review. unlike a past challenge acted or something like that were nasa itself would convene an independent accident investigations bordered my sense is that nasa is a member, sort of advisory number of orbitals and soon-to-be spacex accident review board but they are not leaving that activity. perhaps bill could go deeper into the. >> is the nasa team is participating drug on with the faa team and ads-b on the spacex accident board they developed a paltry just as nasa's done and the way they disposition each
