ESAC Earth Science and
Astrobiology Collaboratory
ESAC's objective
is to create a test-bed for cross-disciplinary, collaborative
problem-solving, initially in Earth Science and Astrobiology,
and to develop an online hub for knowledge-sharing and collaboration.

NASA University (NASA U) aimed to strengthen
NASA's collaborations,
starting from strengths of Silicon Valley
industry, NASA Ames, and neighboring universities to build collaboration in bio-info-nano fusion and
astrobiology. NASA U, not funded during the Bush administration, is archived here.
