NASA PAO Revises Its Media Accreditation Policy

NASA Posts Agencywide Media Accreditation Policy, NASA
“NASA has issued a formal policy that standardizes the criteria and process for media accreditation to cover events and activities at all agency locations. As written into the agency’s mission with the National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958, NASA is charged to “…provide for the widest practicable and appropriate dissemination of information concerning its activities and the results thereof.” As a publicly funded U.S. government agency, NASA is committed to making access to its facilities and personnel as open as possible. Therefore, it is the policy of NASA’s Office of Communications and the communications organizations at all NASA centers and locations to provide accreditation to media representatives, along with necessary virtual and on-site access to agency facilities and officials as resources allow.”
