It would be instructive if the draft Science Plan described how the operating, in-development, and future missions contribute to answering the key science questions contained in relevant decadal surveys. More importantly, there is no clear and consistent description of how current plans are, or are not, aligned with decadal survey recommendations and the causes and rationale behind this situation.

Moreover, the draft Science Plan does not contain a clear description of how the program, as now proposed, is consistent with or varies from past NASA plans and the recommendations from the various decadal surveys. Also, the associated long- and short-term impacts to the space science program caused by the substantial reduction in resources on planned implementation and the rationale for these changes is not clearly described.
