NASA Pledges To Rebalance Technology Development Efforts

摘要

Amid criticism that NASA has strayed from its research and development roots in recent years, a senior agency official told a congressional panel that NASA would be changing the way it invests in advanced technologies.rn"Earlier this year we recognized that our investments in technology have changed. They've changed their focus to a more near-term focus as opposed to a longer-term focus for a variety of reasons," NASA Associate Administrator Chris Scolese told the House Science and Technology space and aeronautics subcommittee Oct. 22. "So we asked a team to go off and look at what we could do ... You can expect to see some changes in how NASA does technology in the future."
