I especially like that these at risk teams must identify what they are doing to recover in the future, but NASA recognizes that they may not be able to sustain themselves in 2010 without some assistance.

Good Luck to everyone who applies!
This new category is a great boost from NASA.

I was talking to a team 2 nights ago who has weathered many hurdles over the years, but just found out they are losing a major sponsor of 7 years-both money and mentors.The even bigger issue is the community may be losing this company.
I'm sure NASA will be receiving some stories.
