It is the sense of Congress that the Administrator, in looking strategically into the future and ensuring that NASA’s Center personnel are at the leading edge of aeronautics research, should continue building on NASA’s Innovative Concepts for Aviation project that supports the early-stage advancement of new processes, novel concepts, and innovative technologies that have the potential to meet national aeronautics needs. The Administrator shall continue to ensure that awards for the investigation of these concepts and technologies are open for competition among NASA civil servants at its Centers, separate from other awards open only to non-NASA sources, including the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
