George Bush. for GEORGE BUSH ON THE ISSUES SPACE EXPLORATION AND RESEARCH Those of you who know me know also of my strong support as a Congressman from Houston for the American space program. I know its needs, I know its real value. And I reject the notion which the Carter Administration seems to hold that we "squander" tax money on space research and exploration. Space funding is, in my view, a relatively low risk investment capital on which the nation will realize a high return. This administration lacks a real appreciation for the huge opportunities developing in the exploitation of space technologies, or any understanding of how these possibilities can stimulate many facets of the economy, give a real boost to industrial productivity in this country, and improve U.S. competitiveness in world markets. This country must not enter the 21st Century short of the tech- nological. tools to ensure its industrial, military and political leadership. Nevertheless, we face other serious problems as well, at home and abroad. The bottom line in our economy is that we have to balance the budget, now, to break the back of inflation. Expenditures on space exploration will, as in other areas, have to be balanced off against this requirement and against other critical needs -- such as a significant ($6-8 Billion) increase in defense spending. I know this nation can meet the many needs of its citizens in- cluding those I so strongly support in our space exploration program. We must continue to reach for the larger future these efforts represent. March 4, 1980 CQ House Votes 114 through 118.

The President's program has three major components: Establishing a long-range goal to expand human presence and activity beyond Earth orbit into the Solar System; Creating opportunities for U.S. commerce in space; and Continuing our national commitment to a permanently manned Space Station. The new policy and programs are contained in a National Security Decision Directive (NSDD) signed by the President on January 5, 1988, the FY 1989 Budget the President will submit shortly to Congress, and a fifteen point Commercial Space Initiative. I. EXPANDING HUMAN PRESENCE BEYOND EARTH ORBIT In the recent NSDD, the President committed to a goal of expanding human presence and activity in the Solar System. To lay the foundation for this goal, the President will be requesting $100 million in his FY 1989 Budget for a major new technology development program "Project Pathfinder" that will enable a broad range of manned or unmanned missions beyond the Earth's orbit. Project Pathfinder will be organized around four major focuses: -- Exploration technology; -- Operations technology; Humans-in-space technology; and -- Transfer vehicle technology. This research effort will give the United States know-how in critical areas, such as humans in the space environment, closed loop life support, aero braking, orbital transfer and maneuvering, cryogenic storage and handling, and large scale space operations, and provide a base for wise decisions on long term goals and missions. Additional highlights of the NSDD are outlined in Section IV of this fact sheet. more - 2 - II. CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR U.S. COMMERCE IN SPACE The President is announcing a fifteen point commercial space initiative to seize the opportunities for a vigorous U.S. commercial presence in Earth orbit and beyond -- in research and manufacturing. This initiative has three goals: Promoting a strong U.S. commercial presence in space; Assuring a highway to space; and Building a solid technology and talent base. Promoting a Strong U.S. Commercial Presence in Space 1. Private Sector Space Facility: The President is announcing an intent for the Federal Government to lease space as an "anchor tenant" in an orbiting space facility suitable for research and commercial manufacturing that is financed, constructed, and operated by the private sector. The Administration will solicit proposals from the U.S. private sector for such a facility. Space in this facility will be used and/or subleased by various Federal agencies with interest in microgravity research. The Administration's intent is to award a contract during mid-summer of this year for such space and related services to be available to the Government no later than the end of FY 1993. 2. Spacehab: The Administration is committing to make best efforts to launch within the Shuttle payload bay, in the early 1990s, the commercially developed, owned, and managed Shuttle middeck module: Spacehab. Manifesting requirements will depend on customer demand. Spacehab is a pressurized metal cylinder that fits in the Shuttle payload bay and connects to the crew compartment through the orbiter airlock. Spacehab takes up approximately one-quarter of the payload bay and increases the pressurized living and working space of an orbiter by approximately 1,000 cubic feet or 400 percent in useable research volume. The facility is intended to be ready for commercial use in mid-1991. 3. Microgravity Research Board: The President will estab- lish, through Executive Order, a National Microgravity Research Board to assure and coordinate a broader range of opportunities for research in microgravity conditions. NASA will chair this board, which will include senior-level representatives from the Departments of Commerce, Transportation, Energy, and Defense, NIH, and NSF; and will consult with the university and commercial sectors. The board will have the following responsibilities: To stimulate research in microgravity environments and its applications to commercial uses by advising Federal agencies, including NASA, on microgravity priorities, and consulting with private industry and academia on microgravity research opportunities; To develop policy recommendations to the Federal Government on matters relating to microgravity research, including types of research, government/ industry/and academic cooperation, and access to space, including a potential launch voucher program; more - 3 - O To coordinate the microgravity programs of Federal agencies by: -- reviewing agency plans for microgravity research and recommending priorities for the use of Federally-owned or leased space on microgravity facilities; and -- ensuring that agencies establish merit review processes for evaluating microgravity research proposals; and To promote transfer of federally funded microgravity research to the commercial sector in furtherance of Executive Order 12591. NASA will continue to be responsible for making judgments on the safety of experiments and for making manifesting decisions for manned space flight systems. 4. External Tanks: The Administration is making available for five years the expended external tanks of the Shuttle fleet at no cost to all feasible U.S. commercial and nonprofit endeavors, for uses such as research, storage, or manufacturing in space. NASA will provide any necessary technical or other assistance to these endeavors on a direct cost basis. If private sector demand exceeds supply, NASA may auction the external tanks. 5. Privatizing Space Station: NASA, in coordination with the Office of Management and Budget, will revise its guidelines on commercialization of the U.S. Space Station to clarify and strengthen the Federal commitment to private sector investment in this program. 6. Future Privatization: NASA will seek to rely to the great- est extent feasible on private sector design, financing, construction, and operation of future Space Station require- ments, including those currently under study. 7. Remote Sensing: The Administration is encouraging the development of commercial remote sensing systems. As part of this effort, the Department of Commerce, in consultation with other agencies, is examining potential opportunities for future Federal procurement of remote sensing data from the U.S. commercial sector. Assuring a Highway to Space 8. Reliance on Private Launch Services: Federal agencies will procure existing and future required expendable launch services directly from the private sector to the fullest extent feasible. 9. Insurance Relief for Launch Providers: The Administration will take administrative steps to address the insurance concerns of the U.S. commercial launch industry, which currently uses Federal launch ranges. These steps include: O Limits on Third Party Liability: Consistent with the Administration's tort policy, the Administration will propose to Congress a $200,000 cap on noneconomic damage awards to individual third parties resulting from commercial launch accidents; more - 4 - Limits on Property Damage Liability: The liability of commercial launch operators for damage to Government property resulting from a commercial launch accidentwill be administratively limited to the level of insurance required by the Department of Transportation. If losses to the Government exceed this level, the Government will waive its right to recover for damages. If losses are less than this level, the Government will waive its right to recover for those damages caused by Government willful misconduct or reckless disregard. 10. Private Launch Ranges: The Administration will consult with the private sector on the potential construction of commercial launch range facilities separate from Federal facilities and the use of such facilities by the Federal Government. 11. Vouchers for Research Payloads: NASA and the Department of Transportation will explore providing to research payload owners manifested on the Shuttle a one time launch voucher that can be used to purchase an alternative U.S. commercial launch service. Building a Solid Technology and Talent Base 12. Space Technology Spin-Offs: The President is directing that the new Pathfinder program, the Civil Space Technology Initiative, and other technology programs be conducted in accordance with the following policies: o Federally funded contractors, universities, and Federal laboratories will retain the rights to any patents and technical data, including copyrights, that result from these programs. The Federal Government will have the authority to use this intellectual property royalty free; Proposed technologies and patents available for licens- ing will be housed in a Pathfinder/CSTI library within NASA; and o When contracting for commercial development of Pathfinder, CSTI and other technology work products, NASA will specify its requirements in a manner that provides contractors with maximum flexibility to pursue innovative and creative approaches. 13. Federal Expertise on Loan to American Schools: The Presi- dent is encouraging Federal scientists, engineers, and technicians in aerospace and space related careers to take a sabbatical year to teach in any level of education in the United States. 14. Education Opportunities: The President is requesting in his FY 1989 Budget expanding five-fold opportunities for U.S. teachers to visit NASA field centers and related aerospace and university facilities. In addition, NASA, NSF, and DoD will contribute materials and classroom experiments through the Department of Education to U.S. schools developing "tech shop" programs. NASA will encourage corporate participation in this program. 15. Protecting U.S. Critical Technologies: The Administration is requesting that Congress extend to NASA the authority it has given the Department of Defense to protect from whole- sale release under the Freedom of Information Act those critical national technologies and systems that are prohib- ited from export. more - 5 - III. CONTINUING THE NATIONAL COMMITMENT TO THE SPACE STATION In 1984, the President directed NASA to develop a permanently manned Space Station. The President remains committed to achieving this end and is requesting $1 billion in his FY 1989 Budget for continued development and a three year appropriation commitment from Congress for $6.1 billion. The Space Station, planned for development in cooperation with U.S. friends and allies, is intended to be a multi-purpose facility for the Nation's science and applications programs. It will permit such things in space as: research, observation of the solar system, assembly of vehicles or facilities, storage, servicing of satellites, and basing for future space missions and commercial and entrepreneurial endeavors in space. To help ensure a Space Station that is cost effective, the President is proposing as part of his Commercial Space Initiative actions to encourage private sector investment in the Space Station, including directing NASA to rely to the greatest extent feasible on private sector design, financing, construction, and operation of future Space Station requirements. IV. ADDITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS OF THE JANUARY 5, 1988 NSDD O U.S. Space Leadership: Leadership is reiterated as a fundamental national objective in areas of space activity critical to achieving U.S. national security, scientific, economic and foreign policy goals. O Defining Federal Roles and Responsibilities: Government activities are specified in three separate and distinct sectors: civil, national security, and nongovernmental. Agency roles and responsibilities are codified and specific goals are established for the civil space sector; those for other sectors are updated. o Encouraging a Commercial Sector: A separate, nongovernmental or commercial space sector is recognized and encouraged by the policy that Federal Government actions shall not preclude or deter the continuing development of this sector. New guidelines are established to limit unnecessary Government competition with the private sector and ensure that Federal agencies are reliable customers for commercial space goods and services. O The President's launch policy prohibiting NASA from maintaining an expendable launch vehicle adjunct to the Shuttle, as well as limiting commercial and foreign payloads on the Shuttle to those that are Shuttle-unique or serve national security or foreign policy purposes, is reaffirmed. In addition, policies endorsing the purchase of commercial launch services by Federal agencies are further strengthened. o National Security Space Sector: An assured capability for national security missions is clearly enunciated, and the survivability and endurance of critical national security space functions is stressed. Assuring Access to Space: Assured access to space is recognized as a key element of national space policy. U.S. space transportation systems that provide sufficient resiliency to allow continued operation, despite failures in any single system, are emphasized. The mix of space transportation vehicles will be defined to support mission needs in the most cost effective manner. Remote Sensing: Policies for Federal "remote sensing" or observation of the Earth are established to encourage the development of U.S. commercial systems competitive with or superior to foreign-operated civil or commercial systems. # # # September 1, 1989 Memorandum Subject: Suggested Draft Speech On The Information Age It is evident to everyone that we live in a time of momentous change. The recent events in Central Europe alone are cause for wonder and would never have been predicted only a short time ago. All of the recent dramatic changes have led a good many observers to seek a common thread in all the confusion, to explain what really is behind all the political and social transformation around the globe. I believe that all Americans who have compared what's happening in other countries to our own, know the explanation in their bones. It has been said before: freedom works. Freedom works because it is in mankind's nature to be free. Our forefathers knew that when they began the great experiment that is America. But they knew that freedom is vulnerable and for freedom to fully flower we must cultivate it with every useful tool we can devise. Today we are witnessing the development of new tools and new mechanisms that can help promote freedom, just as the magnificent institutional mechanisms which our founders devised -- our system of checks and balances, for example -- have preserved and enhanced freedom on this continent. (more) 2-2-2 These new tools I speak of are especially evident in the emergence of new technologies that have made the spread of information much easier and more widespread. Like any instrument, these new information technologies can be used for good or evil purposes. But by and large, they are tending to overcome the barriers to free expression around the world, and to develop new forms of useful wealth based less on material things, and more on ideas and knowledge. These new technologies have allowed information, ideas, and capital to be transmitted from one place in the world to another in the blink of an eye. The new technologies of communication: computers, lasers, fax machines, lasers optical fibers, satellites all these wonderful new things have symbolized what has come to be known as the Information Age, a new era marked by investment in human capital and the creations of the mind: services and software, ideas and information. Many of us see the new technologies in our everyday work: for example, in the personal computers that existed only in the imagination a short time ago. I am reminded of an incident that took place in the Soviet Union where some American journalists were reporting on a scientific conference. The American reporters were approached by the Soviet scientists they were covering. (more) 3-3-3 The scientists, it seemed, had never before seen the laptop computers the reporters were using. They wanted to know how it worked. When the Americans explained that they could send their stories back home via the phone lines, the Soviet scientists were amazed. It must have occurred to some of them that the old saying could be updated to read "The keyboard is mightier than the sword." Today, of course, these kinds of computers are becoming common, characteristically as the latest tool of expression for the free press that is America's pride. Freedom of expression has always been the hallmark of American democracy. The only difference is that today we have technologies like those personal computers that make expressing and transmitting information much easier as a practical matter. But, of course, vast numbers of the world's people have never known the access to information, to knowledge, that we in the free world enjoy. For them the facts of the world have always been smothered -- or more accurately -- twisted and stretched, manipulated beyond recognition -- by the brutal hands of tyranny and ignorance. Particularly in the totalitarian world has that most critical source of information -- history -- been held hostage for sinister political purposes. (more) 4-4-4 For decades, the most eloquent voices in both the West and the East have told us about the workings and implications of official thought control. From George Orwell to Arthur Koestler to Alexander Solzhenitsyn to Czeslaw Milosz, we have all learned the nature of the atrocities that tyranny has committed not just in the past, but on the past: the names of ancient cities, towns, and streets changed to reflect the latest officially- approved personage -- the encyclopedias that come with razor blades to remove the entries on those whom the state has decided to condemn -- the banned books and periodicals -- the silenced tongues -- the unmarked graves -- the Big Lie. All these are symbols of the ultimate tyranny, the tyranny of the state over the free expression of mankind. But suddenly there is a dawning awareness that something has changed. Not only has tyranny been thrown on the defensive, but the agents of tyranny realize it themselves. For years the brutal hands of state authority have hurled sand into the eyes of history itself. But now a New Breeze blows it back in the form of silicon chips and optical fibers -- the symbols of the Information Age. (more) 5-5-5 I have often spoken about the New Breeze. Very simply it is the force of an idea: the idea of freedom and democracy. Technological change can reinforce freedom -- it actually does, at this very moment. The technological change of the Information Age is helping to fan the New Breeze and ventilate long-stifled centers of expression. Together, the Information Age and the New Breeze reinforce each other. The darkness that for many nations has long obscured vast areas of history and knowledge -- what the Czech writer, Milan Kundera has called the "Kingdom of Forgetting" -- is suddenly being dispelled and blown away. Whole peoples are awaking from an artificial amnesia imposed upon them by brute force of the state. What emerges to take its place will depend mainly on what the people themselves do in those places in which the New Breeze has been blowing. But what emerges will also depend in part on us: on all those who have long treasured the traditions of the free exchange of ideas and information -- we who live in the societies that have created the knowledge-based economy and the technologies of the Information Age. We, by our own actions and our own example will help determine whether the Kingdoms of Forgetting develop into, as it were, the Republics of Remembering. (more) 6-6-6 As an example, let me return to the those journalists with their laptop computers. I believe that in many ways American journalism represents the cutting edge of what many have called the New Information Age. Peace, prosperity, and above all, freedom, depends upon the people's access to truth. A free press serves to protect and preserve the truth. In this time of dramatic world change, it is all the more critical that we meet our obligation to reveal the truth and remove the barriers to the flow of information. Therefore, we must not forget that the free press we have in America is not only the envy of the world for its pursuit of truth, it is also increasingly the model for those seeking greater access to the sources of information. In a larger sense, America is itself a model to the world in this age of change. That is a heavy responsibility for us all. But I am confident that we can meet it. We can meet it because we have the winning ideas, the ideas I symbolize as the New Breeze. And because, to borrow a phrase from an old TV show, "we have the technology." (more) 7-7-7 [That is why I am calling on the institutions of American journalism to volunteer in sharing their techniques and their technology with fellow journalists in countries, like Poland, which seek to establish -- for the first time in decades -- the foundations of a truly free press. We already have the admirable example of American labor unions helping their sister organizations in other countries. And here at home American reporters already represent, in a myriad of ways, the spirit of A Thousand Points of Light. Let us take that spirit and apply it to help lift the darkness that has enshrouded too many nations.] [Other possible initiatives: TV Marti; Direct Satellite Broadcasting to Eastern Europe; urging prevention of barriers to American radio/TV programming in the European Community; U.S. rejoining UNESCO] Take another example of the Information Age that is, literally, closer to home. More and more, people are choosing to do their day to day work at home. Again, the Information Age has made this possible. Through personal computers, modems, fax machines, and the like, ordinary people can work closer to the people they are really working for: their families. (more) 8-8-8 We see the effects in the recent phenomenon of so-called "telecommuting." People are making their own homes their offices, and communicating with their co-workers through the new technologies. In doing so, they are increasing their own quality of life by avoiding congested urban areas, and increasing the quality of life for other people by reducing that congestion and the pollution that comes with it For many people this is an old story: they've always worked at home, whether it was harvesting the back-forty behind the house in the Midwestern autumn, or knitting piece-work at the kitchen table in the New England winter, or, year-round, the noblest occupation of all, the job of looking after the kids at home. Come to think of it, I do most of my work around the house myself. [That is why I am directing my Secretary of Labor, Elizabeth Dole, to study ways to make working at home easier, and to remove any unreasonable barriers that may prevent people from taking full advantage of the opportunities to fulfill their vocations at home where they can be closer to their families.] (more) 9-9-9 The Information Age holds the promise not only of new ways to ensure that the New Breeze of freedom and democracy blows around the world, but that here at home the promise of economic opportunity is enhanced in every corner, every hearthside, of America. This nation which started the information revolution should also be the nation which shows how to use these new technologies for the benefit of all mankind. That's all the more important because, in this era of political and social change around the world, more and more countries will be looking as never before to the United States as their model for reshaping their own destinies. We have the tools. We have the technology. We have the winning ideas. We have freedom. And we have the promise of greater freedom for ourselves and for unseen millions around the globe. Let's get to work. ###
