FIGURE n.3 Federal R&D and FS&T funding by national goal. Fiscal Year 199-*. 



SOURCE: Data on federal R&D are from Table 4. National Science Foundation, Federal rinuliii}' by 

 Budget Function: Fiscal Years 799.^95 (Arlington. Va.: NSF/Division of Science Resources Studies, 

 forthcommg). FS&T data were derived by substituting FS&T funding b\' DOD. DOE, and NASA from 

 Figure II. 1 for National Defense. Energy, and Space Research and Technology R&D totals (this exer- 

 cise involves making a somewhat arbitrary division of DOE FS&T between national defense activities 

 (atomic energy) and energy activities).
