Keith's 10 Dec update: ; I asked Jim Bridenstine today if this report has been delivered. He replied that it has not.
"At the 6th meeting of the National Space Council, the following recommendation was adopted: "Within 60 days, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Administrator will designate an office and submit a plan to the Chairman of the National Space Council for sustainable lunar surface exploration and development, including necessary technologies and capabilities, to enable initial human missions to Mars."
Remarks by Vice President Pence at the Sixth Meeting of the National Space Council, 20 August 2019
'And I recommend to the public's attention the public record that you will find that we are setting specific timelines for the Administrator in the next 60 days to designation of an office and submission of a plan for a sustainable lunar surface exploration and the development of crewed missions to Mars."
Keith's 6 Dec note: The 6th meeting of the National Space Council took place on 20 August 2019. The 60 day due date would therefore have been 19 October. It has been
47 51 days since the due date passed. Has anyone seen this report? Was it ever delivered? If not, when will it be delivered?
