A tremendous amount of modern research ends up being sold to journals which require unreasonable payments to access it and only pay the original authors a pittance. It’s nice to see an agency like NASA deliberately widebanding its findings. Not sure if people fully realize just how big of a deal this is. THIS is how science is advanced. Not through biased corporate research, business secrets, marketing, paywalls and patent wars. But through open, uncensored and unrestricted public access to knowledge. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/?term=%22nasa+funded%22[Filter] ^ There’s the direct link to all the studies. NASA IS GOOD, NASA IS GREAT @osunism NASA is the hero we don’t deserve. This deserves every reblog. @geh-is-okeh In the face of institutions being silenced, this is doubly huge. I love seeing that, for once, there are more reblogs than likes Keep passing on this info, guys. Good job THIS is how science is advanced. Not through biased corporate research, business secrets, marketing, paywalls and patent wars. But through open, uncensored and unrestricted public access to knowledge. Thank you @vabla for saying exactly what was on my mind, this is so important! Thank you, @nasa! -- source link
