Intramural activities cover costs associated with administration of intramural and extramural programs by federal personnel as well as actual intramural
performance.
NOTES: Because of rounding, detail may not add to total. In FY 2000, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) reclassified Space Station as a
physical asset, reclassified Space Station Research as equipment, and transferred funding for the program from R&D to R&D plant; National Institutes of Health
reclassified all its development activities as research. In FY 2003, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration reclassified some of its funding
categories as non-R&D that were considered R&D in prior years. Between FY 2006 and FY 2007, NASA's R&D obligations decreased for two reasons: (1) in FY
2007, NASA excluded projects that were operational in nature that were not excluded in FY 2006, which accounts for $850 million of the decrease; and (2) there
was an overall decrease in obligations between FY 2006 and FY 2007, which accounts for the remainder of the decrease.
