Despite everything that is broken and unsettling in the world, America and our great space agency is worth fighting for — and fixing.
From the moment Jared’s nomination to head NASA was announced last year, the reaction from passionate space enthusiasts and professionals was overwhelmingly positive. Everyone had ideas — big, small, crazy, pragmatic and visionary. It became immediately clear that no other federal agency attracts the level of engagement NASA does. Space captivates people — us included. So, we wanted to share a few of our ideas.

The first step to fixing a problem is admitting we have one. If NASA wants to get back to generating world-changing headlines, we must confront some difficult facts.
