International Programs

In developing partnerships with researches overseas, NASA scientists and engineers need to remember NASA’s global commitment to environmental stewardship. We are not only conducting cutting edge R&D, we need to ensure that we are doing field activities that are environmentally sound. It is therefore the responsibility of program and project managers to consider protected or sensitive sites when planning to work overseas. Knowing the location of critical habitat or World Heritage Sites is paramount in insuring NASA does not inadvertently impact international resources.
