Why We Explore [the Project, “why We Explore,” Address What Inspires Humans to Explore, From a Cultural and Social Perspective. With Historic Achievements in Exploration Now Realized and New Goals and Frontiers Emerging Each Day, the Social, Cultural, and Economic Impacts of Space Exploration on Our Daily Lives Are Equally as Important as the Science and Technology That Support It. Further, With the Federal Government’s Charge to Reignite American’s Space Legacy and Develop a Unique Branch of the Military to Protect It, Now Is the Right Time to Reconvene a Dialogue to Ask, and More Accurately Answer the Question, “why Do We Explore?” This Project Will Position the Country’s Ever-evolving Attitudes Toward Space and Exploration, in Both the Public and Private Sectors, in the Larger Context of Similar Attitudes Visible Throughout the World in a Wide Variety of Cultures, With the Goal of Launching a Larger Dialogue About the Role That Space Exploration Plays in the Human Experience.]

Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then .
