Bridenstine: Gateway Is - And Is Not - A Space Station

OK, this is odd, @JimBridenstine just referred to the Gateway as "a human-tended space station" but just a few minutes ago he said that "Gateway is not a space station". If the Administrator of @NASA is confused on this issue ... pic.twitter.com/MuiOuJz5fy

We just heard @JimBridenstine say that "Gateway is not a space station" yet if you look inside the @LockheedMartin high fidelity mockup they have a plant growth chamber like they use on ISS. Why? This is supposed to be a command/service module according to Bridenstine. pic.twitter.com/L78EfK4yVy
