'Seeking a Human Spaceflight Program Worthy of a Great Nation' Summary

The Review of U.S. Human Space Flight Plans Committee was established to provide an independent assessment of the nation's current and future human space flight plans. The committee was tasked with identifying and characterizing a range of options that span the reasonable possibilities for continuation of U.S. human space flight activities beyond retirement of the Space Shuttle. The committee's final report presents the findings of its review and offers specific recommendations for how NASA can develop a safe, innovative, affordable, and sustainable human space flight program that aligns with the nation's long-term goals for space exploration.
