Official: NASA Must Watch Mars Spending
By MIKE SCHNEIDER
Associated Press Writer
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. --
A congressional committee promised Thursday to scrutinize NASA and its
spending as the agency proceeds with a program to take astronauts to
the moon and Mars.
The space agency faces hidden costs by starting development of the
spacecraft and rockets for the program without knowing the price tag
of the new technology, a watchdog official warned Thursday in
Washington at a hearing of the House Committee on Science.
