Participatory Exploration Policy Recommendations for National Aeronautics and Space Administration Participatory exploration was first introduced in 2007 at the NASA Participatory Exploration Summit at Ames Research Center and was prioritized into the NASA Authorization Act of 2008(its necessity to NASA s continued public relevance in the 21 st century. We have written a paper for NASA senior management that discusses the role of participatory exploration as a way of aggregating and leveraging people s contributions in ways that are useful to other people which can be applied to NASA programs and projects to engage the American public in the exploration experience and to identify opportunities for the direct involvement of the public, the private sector, nongovernmental organizations, and international partners. The paper includes specific recommendations which we have summarized below. We've posted the paper on openNASA for your consideration and encourage you to share your thoughts on Participatory Exploration as well.
