Title: Open source NASA
Post by: Polyphony on September 26, 2012, 05:40:56 AM

I saw this on the "Linux Journal" open.nasa.gov

seems to be an open source programming api to help develop apps or something, not sure about the details but I love how NASA is moving to open source applications and embracing the creativity of others! :) just thought I'd share it with you guys, maybe we can make an Evilzone spaceship xD

Maybe we can make an extension for d0xbase with satellite photos xD (j/k), but daemon is right though. Why else would they make such a thing...

haha clever way of looking at it Daemon, I can see how that might be the case :P but they might just have a wonderful love for FOSS like a lot of us do too... xD if not, it is still a bunch of cool APIs that is open for the public to use for free which, whether it's for the love of FOSS or for free labor, is pretty sweet lol
