Daniel Boorstin and Bruce Friedman provided additional statements for the record. The Subcommittee chairman stated that "The reason for having these particular hearings at this time is that our civilian space program finds itself at a critical crossroads for many reasons. Among them are that the well-advertised economic recovery plan may fall heavily on discretionary programs such as NASA, there is a new administration in the White House with new philosophies, and there is a new management team in NASA....If we don't believe there is a future, we won't begin preparing for it, or, if we have a muddled view of the future, we are likely to have muddled plans for that future. Through these hearing we hope to begin to crystallize a view of the future for our space programs."
