Discovery Program Acquisition.
Two Columns
The following list of organizations have expressed an interest in teaming with other organizations on Discovery proposals
to further the efforts of planetary exploration. This is simply a list of organizations that have asked to be included on this
list and no investigation has been accomplished by NASA to verify any of the listed information such as areas of expertise or
their capabilities for teaming. Proposing organizations are not required to team with any organization on this list.
It is simply provided as a forum for the community to use in matching expertise needs with sources.
NASA does not endorse any of these organizations and does not accept responsibility for their capabilities or actions.
