HR 2984 United States House · 119th Congress

ASTRO Act

This bill allows NASA personnel returning from space missions to receive temporary transportation (like ridesharing or shuttles) when they need it for medical monitoring or duties before receiving post-flight medical clearance to drive. It directly affects astronauts and NASA staff who require this service during their recovery period. The bill requires NASA to submit annual reports to Congress detailing who used the service, the costs, and the number of instances, but does not authorize new funding for these transportation arrangements.
