About
In NASA and the Space Industry Joan Lisa Bromberg explores how NASA's relationship with the private sector developed and how it works. She outlines the various kinds of expertise public and private sectors brought to the tasks NASA took on, describing how this division of labor changed over time. She explains why NASA sometimes encouraged and sometimes thwarted the privatization of space projects. And she describes the agency's role in the rise of such new space industries as launch vehicles and communications satellites.
