"Open" NASA

Space Available: NASA Embraces Open Government Initiative
“Through a new policy initiative, NASA is working to make open source software development more collaborative to benefit the agency and public. NASA technology has created “Nebula,” the U.S. government’s only cloud computing platform, which offers an easier way for NASA scientists and researchers to share large, complex data sets with external partners and the public. The creation of a new NASA Participatory Exploration Office will infuse more public participation into NASA’s mission as part of a culture change to directly engage people in exploration.”
