RELEASE: 05-356
"There are many in the private sector that are eager to develop
commercially viable space transportation systems,” said Scott
Horowitz, associate administrator, NASA's Exploration Systems Mission
Directorate. "In the future, the commercial sector will provide cost
effective access to space for both crew and cargo. While NASA must
develop its own capabilities for space exploration, the commercial
sector will eventually provide these services when it becomes cost
effective. I am very excited to have Alan leading this effort. His
skill, enthusiasm and dedication to developing commercial space will
be key to enabling this fledgling industry."
