This is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Fiscal Year 2003 (FY 2003) Performance and Accountability Report (PAR), which presents detailed information on NASA's performance and financial statements for FY 2003. It also reports on management challenges and NASAs plan's and efforts to overcome them. Clearly, NASA faces no greater management challenge in 2004 and beyond than overcoming the cultural and technical issues that contributed to the tragic loss of Columbia on February 1, 2003. Therefore, a special section on Columbia precedes the main body of this report. This section describes the events of that day and the investigations that followed, presents the details of the Columbia Accident Investigation Board (CAIB) Report and NASA's responses, and lays out NASA's return to flight plans.
