<p>For transparency of the agency’s commercial space safety investigative authority, the NTSB is proposing adding Subpart F for Commercial Space Investigations to supplement and formalize its investigation procedures in this sector. By codifying its role in commercial space transportation, the agency anticipates that Subpart F will enhance safety by enabling it to conduct accident/incident investigations, identify necessary corrective actions, and prevent future space transportation mishaps. The NTSB has exercised this authority, and both led and supported commercial space launch and reentry investigations, for more than 20 years on an ad hoc basis. Comments on the proposal are due by Jan. 18, 2022.</p>
