results
not
just
from
a
lack

or

It
goes

21. NASA’s
Open
Government
Plan
“No
one
is
an
expert
in
Open
Government.
We
are
taking
an
experimental
and
scienWfic
approach
to
Open
Government.
It
will
transform
NASA
into
a
more
transparent,
parWcipatory,
and
collaboraWve
Agency
and
ease
our
transiWon
into
a
21st
century
space
program.”
