'''NASA''' is the '''National Aeronautics and Space Administration'''. Established in 1957, NASA is the United States lead agency for aeronautics and space research, and runs the U.S. civilian space program.

On May 25, 1961, NASA was assigned the task by President John F. Kennedy of "landing a man on the surface of the moon and returning him safely to Earth" by the end of the decade; this goal was accomplished by the [[Apollo]] project in July, 1969

NASA's headquarters is in Washington, D.C., but the actual NASA work is accomplished at the nine NASA '''Field Centers,''' as well as by universities and private industry under contract to NASA.

		+	Periodically, the management of any large organization needs to take stock of future work as part of its planning process. In this effort, the organization should look at both problems and opportunities that lie ahead. The NASA [[Goddard Space Flight Center]] (GSFC) is undergoing this process in the spring of 2008.
