The goals stated in this Plan will be accomplished by a diverse group of men and women at our Headquarters, nine Centers throughout the country, and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. We will also rely on partnerships with both large and small contractors, members of the academic community, other Federal, State, and local agencies, and other space agencies from nations around the globe.

This highly skilled team of scientists, engineers, technicians, and administrative and support professionals is dedicated to providing high-quality, technologically superior products and services in aeronautics and space. Through our dedication and professionalism, we will carry out our mission, achieve our goals and objectives, and ultimately find answers to the fundamental questions of science and research.
