The Aerospace Safety Advisory Panel (ASAP) released its annual safety report to NASA .

The report points to significant safety observations for both the agency's Moon to Mars Program and the current International Space Station operations.

There are "considerable risk-related issues" surrounding NASA 's planned transition to Commercial low- Earth orbit destinations, the report says.

ASAP cautions NASA and SpaceX to maintain intense focus on safe Crew Dragon operations.

Tempo of SpaceX operations is a concern given the increased pace of Falcon 9 operations.

Budget uncertainty from Congress hampers NASA ’s ability to plan for and execute highly technical missions, report says.
