This appropriation provides for the full costs associated with the space operations activities of the agency. The full costs include all labor, travel, procurement, test and fabrication costs to execute these programs, which provide for all of the research; development; operations; salaries and related expenses; and other general and administrative activities supporting the programs within this account. Major themes within the Space Operations account include the International Space Station, Space Transportation and Space and Flight Support. Performance goals associated with these activities are addressed in NASA's detailed budget request.

The International Space Station is a complex of research laboratories in low Earth orbit in which America and its international partners, including Russia, Canada, Europe, and Japan, conduct unique scientific and technological investigations in a microgravity environment. The objective of the International Space Station is to support human space exploration and conduct science experiments and technology development unique to the on-orbit attributes of the facility.

Space and Flight Support is comprised of multiple capabilities that provide on-going customer support for a wide range of services. The programs include Space Communications and Navigation, Human Space Flight Operations, Launch Services, Rocket Propulsion Testing, and the multi-user 21st Century Space Launch Complex. They are provided to a wide range of customers including NASA, other U.S. Federal agencies, foreign governments, and commercial customers. The programs are managed by NASA's Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate, which also manages programs in the Exploration account.

The Space Transportation theme's objective is to transport U.S. astronauts and cargo safely back and forth to America's orbiting national laboratory, ISS. This newly created theme combines the Commercial Crew Program and ISS Crew and Cargo. Maintaining the ISS requires a fleet of vehicles and launch locations to transport astronauts, science experiments, critical supplies, maintenance hardware, replenish propellant, and dispose of waste. The Commercial Crew Program partners with the U.S. private sector to develop and operate safe, reliable, and affordable crew transportation to low-Earth orbit. Within ISS Crew and Cargo Transportation, NASA currently purchases cargo transportation to the ISS under the CRS contracts with Orbital ATK and SpaceX and crew transportation from the Russian Space Agency, Roscosmos.
