1 No line item exists for this expenditure. Modal agencies make voluntary contributions to the Center.
2 NASA funding decreases for CCRI from FY 2007 to FY 2009 are primary due to the planned ramp-down of resources for the Glory mission, a major contributor to NASA CCRI funding, which is competing development in preparation for December 2008 (FY 2009) launch.
Note: Any minor discrepancies within this table and between this table and others are due to rounding.
