NASA and the Defense Department must consult on shared aeronautical and space matters. If they disagree, either side can send the dispute to the President. The President's decision on the dispute is final.
(a) Advise and Consult. The Administration* and the Department of Defense, through the President, must advise and consult with each other on all matters within their respective areas of responsibility related to aeronautical and space activities*, and must keep each other fully and currently informed about those activities.
(b) Referral to the President. If the Secretary of Defense decides that a request, action, proposed action, or failure to act by the Administrator* hurts the Department of Defense's responsibilities, or the Administrator decides the same about the Department of Defense, and the Administrator and the Secretary of Defense can't agree on the matter, either one can send it to the President for a decision, which is final.
The Administration* and the Department of Defense, through the President, shall advise and consult with each other on all matters within their respective jurisdictions related to aeronautical and space activities* and shall keep each other fully and currently informed with respect to such activities.
If the Secretary of Defense concludes that any request, action, proposed action, or failure to act on the part of the Administrator* is adverse to the responsibilities of the Department of Defense, or the Administrator concludes that any request, action, proposed action, or failure to act on the part of the Department of Defense is adverse to the responsibilities of the Administration, and the Administrator and the Secretary of Defense are unable to reach an agreement with respect to the matter, either the Administrator or the Secretary of Defense may refer the matter to the President for a decision (which shall be final).
