Yesterday, Dr. Peter Diamandis, the man behind the X Prize, posted an essay over at huffingtonpost, entitled Re-establishing NASA's Leadership. In it, he offers a list of 7 ways to help reform NASA, so that it can better lead in the pursuit of space development.
Here is the list
1. Engage the Private Community
2. Use Risk as a Tool
3. Attract and Retain the Best Workers
4. Help America Benefit from the Global Space Community
5. Take the Lead Where Only NASA Can
6. Leverage Incentive Prizes
7. Inspire the Nation, and the World
