Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Nov. 3, 1999
Report No. NSIAD-00-14
Subject
Summary:

The international space station, with 16 nations involved, is one of the largest scientific collaborations attempted. Under international agreements, NASA, as the U.S. representative, is obligated to deliver, disclose, or transfer technology, data, and commodities needed to implement the program. Members of Congress have raised concerns about the extent of safeguards to protect technology and information exported in support of the space station. This report provides information on (1) the licenses granted to NASA to export space station-related technology and commodities and plans to export encryption technology and (2) the results of internal and external assessments of NASA's export control program and NASA's actions to implement audit recommendations. Encryption technology maintains the secrecy of information and is needed to provide secure transmission of command and control instructions between ground and space components of the space station.
