[[Media:94-09-30.pdf|Space News for this day. (1MB PDF)]] NASA announced that two companies had been recognized as minority contractor and subcontractor of the year for their outstanding contributions to the space program. NASA Administrator [[Daniel S. Goldin]] named ERC, Inc., Tullahoma, Tennessee, as Minority Contractor of the Year and BST Systems, Inc., Plainfield, Connecticut, as Minority Subcontractor of the Year. (NASA Release 94-163) NASA announced assembly sequence refinements that incorporated the latest updates to plans for the [[International Space Station]]. The sequence incorporated early provisions for a centrifuge and allowed for the earlier construction of Russia's Solar Power Platform but did not affect existing major milestones. (NASA Release 94-164) NASA learned that instead of the anticipated $225 million cut in its [[Space Shuttle]] budget for 1995, Congress had cut an additional $141 million, for a total Shuttle budget cut of $366 million. President Clinton had signed the NASA 1995 spending bill, which allocated $3.18 billion for the Shuttle program out of a total NASA budget of $14.37 billion. The effects of the cuts on NASA operations remained to be determined. (Fla Today, Sep 30/94) Jean-Marc Artaud, program director for the [[Ariane-5]] rocket for the French National Space Agency ([[CENTRE NATIONAL D’ETUDES SPATIALES|CNES]]) in Guiana, discussed the launch that took place of a solid propellant booster that was part of the new generation rocket. The rocket was launched from a [[European Space Agency]] ([[ESA]]) center in the jungle of French Guyana on the northeast coast of South America in a test aimed at keeping the [[ESA]] in the lead in launching heavy satellites into the next century.
