CASE STUDY: COLLABORATION AT THE NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND

SPACE ADMINISTRATION (NASA)

Background: During and before the Apollo program years at NASA, it was the primary government organization involved in all space technology decisions.  Since the Space Shuttle Program, NASA has been reinvented.  It transformed from a closed system with a hierarchy that develops its technologies internally to an open and collaborative network that promotes innovation and collaboration with other public and private organizations. NASA has become more interdependent.

· Using the readings in the Agranoff text, the articles in the course, and your research, describe this new collaborative approach at NASA. 

· Use the Moon to Mars Mission (Artemis-Orion).  Bridge the theories to the case situation. 

· Do these theories apply?  Explain.
