Welcome to openLangley

By Michael Finneran

Welcome to openLangley, an experiment in online conversation.

openLangley is an evolving forum for connecting, communicating and collaborating with people who work at NASA Langley Research Center, as well as with others who are interested in NASA and LaRC. It’s about sharing constructive, visionary and bold dialogue about the Center, the agency, the aerospace industry. It’s a place for exchanging ideas, thoughts, observations, successes – and even things that didn’t work out so well.

What openLaRC is not

openLangley is not an official NASA site. It is hosted on a WordPress server. Government funds are not use to pay for this service. The small cost of maintaining this site comes out of the pockets of its originators. openLangley is not a vehicle for, nor does it necessarily reflect, the official opinions, policy or positions of NASA.

We are not alone

openLangley is similar to OpenGoddard and openNASA. Check them out to see how they’re doing it.

    Welcome OpenLangley! The image of the spheres is very appropriate as they are definite Langley landmarks.
