Talk Innovation with Peter Hughes

Goddard’s Chief Technologist, Peter Hughes, will meet with OpenGoddard participants on Wednesday, March 4, 2009 at noon in the Goddard Library, for a dialogue about innovation and innovation programs at Goddard. This forum will also be a place to invite conversation about the recent YouTube video criticizing NASA for stifling innovation. In case you have not heard, a video was posted on YouTube a few weeks back and received a great deal of attention. Wayne Hale, Deputy Associate Administrator for Strategic Partnerships at JSC, posted the video and his thoughts about it on his blog. He wrote that he found it “extraordinarily funny and not at all funny”. The video was part of a report out to JSC management regarding recommendations to improve innovation.
