Ulawulo lwe-Aviation Administration (i-FAA) kunye ne-National Aeronautics kunye ne-Space Administration (NASA) batyikitye imemorandam yokuqonda (MOU) ukuxhasa imisebenzi yezithuba zorhwebo ezinxulumene nothutho lukaRhulumente kunye nabakhweli abangahambiyo kurhulumente, imithwalo, kunye nokuhlawulwa kwemithwalo yomibini kunye nemishini engaphantsi komtshato.
"Le ntsebenziswano ye-FAA-NASA kwinqanaba loMlawuli iya kuqhubela phambili icandelo lezorhwebo laseMelika, incede isayensi kunye netekhnoloji, kwaye incedise ekuququzeleleni imigaqo-nkqubo yesizwe yase-US, utshilo uNobhala Wezothutho wase-US u-Elaine L. Chao.
The FAA kwaye NASA babelane ngemidla ekwenziweni kweshishini elinamandla lesithuba ukufezekisa indawo ekhuselekileyo, ethembekileyo, kunye nendleko ezifanelekileyo, kunye nokuphucula ukhuphiswano, ukhuseleko kunye nokufikeleleka kwamandla e-American aerospace. Ukongeza, ubambiswano lubalulekile ekufezekiseni iinjongo kunye neenjongo zemigaqo-nkqubo yesizwe emininzi yase-US.
"Intsebenziswano phakathi kwe-FAA kunye ne-NASA ibalulekile ukuqhubeka nokukhula, ukuvelisa izinto ezintsha kunye nokukhuseleka kokusebenza kwendawo yoshishino, kunye nokugcina ukubalasela kobunkokheli base-US kwicandelo le-aerospace," utshilo uMlawuli we-FAA uSteve Dickson.
Ngaphantsi kwe-MOU, i-FAA kunye ne-NASA bazokwakha ukumiliselwa okuzinzileyo kunye nesakhelo sokungena kwakhona kwishishini lesithuba saseMelika elicacileyo, kwaye kuthintela iimfuno ezingqubanayo kunye neeseti ezininzi zemigangatho. Ezi arhente zimbini ziya kuthi ziqhubele phambili ngenqaku lendawo yokurhweba ngenkqutyana yendawo eneenqanawa ezichongiweyo kunye noyilo lwendawo yomoya phakathi kwezinye izinto ukuxhasa le ndlela yotshintsho yothutho lomoya umgama omde.
"I-NASA ngoku ihamba ngenqwelomoya kunye nabasebenzi kwi-International Space Station, kwaye kungekudala sizothumela abantu abaninzi kunye nesayensi emajukujukwini ngeenqwelomoya ezintsha," utshilo uMlawuli we-NASA uJim Bridenstine. "Indibaniselwano yethu ne-FAA iyakuxhasa ukukhula kwezorhwebo laseMelika elinokubanceda i-NASA, isizwe kunye nehlabathi liphela."
I-MOU iya kuthi incede i-FAA kunye ne-NASA ekuqhubeleni phambili ukhuseleko loluntu, ukuququzelela itekhnoloji yendawo entsha kunye neendawo zamathuba ophando, kunye nokwabelana ngedatha yezonyango kwiziphumo zokuhamba ngenqwelomoya phakathi kwabahlali bezithuthi zasemajukujukwini kunye neendawo zokuhlala.
Intsebenziswano eqhubekayo phakathi kwee-arhente ezimbini yaqaqanjiswa kukuqaliswa kwabasebenzi abanelungelo-mvume lokuqala le-NASA-iphulo le-NASA yoRhwebo (CCP) kwi-International Space Station ngo-Novemba 2020.
Olunye usebenziswano olukhoyo phakathi kwe-FAA kunye ne-NASA lubandakanya iNkqubo yokuThuthwa kweNdiza encedise ekuphuhlisweni kwesakhelo sabaphandi abaphaphayo abasuka kumzi-mveliso nakwizifundo zeenqwelomoya kwiinqwelo-moya zorhwebo kunye neenzame zeCCP ze-Suborbital Crew (SubC) iinzame zokwandisa amandla ezothutho kwindawo ye-NASA kunye nezinye i-NASA abasebenzi. Iphepha-mvume le-FAA liyacelwa ukuba liqhube nasiphi na isithuba sokurhweba okanye ukuphinda ungene, ukusebenza kwayo nayiphi na indawo yokwazisa okanye yokungena kwakhona ngabemi base-US naphina emhlabeni, okanye nangaye nawuphina umntu okanye iziko laseMelika.
