NASA ARC Memo: Message from the Director All-Hands Meeting - August 26, 2005
"The rapid pace of NASA's transformation efforts in support of the Exploration Vision has made it very hard to assess the implications for Ames. But I think we have enough solid information at this point that I can share with you where we stand."
