NASA Releases New Open Government Plan
“NASA today released version 2.0 of its Open Government Plan, which includes a flagship initiative to build a new web architecture and a renewed focus on open data sharing, open source development and a variety of technology acceleration efforts. The plan also features a directory of more than 100 participatory, collaborative and transparent projects, offering citizens opportunities to understand, support and engage with the agency. Throughout the next year, NASA will continue to add projects to the directory.”

    This seems to be another in a long series of NASA attempts to connect with the public. A lot of work has been invested, but whether it will be any more successful in practical terms is hard to judge. Remember “One NASA”?

    Some compelling reading at a macro-policy level is in the current issue of FOREIGN AFFAIRS QUARTERLY – and its lead article “The Case for Space”, by the Hayden Planetarium director.

    Intriguing, too, are the posted comments through April 9th, so far — mine included.
