Re: 2010 NASA team grants announced

What an awesome show of support by NASA to invest in so many FIRST teams!

NASA's Science Mission Director (Ed Weiler) and Solar System Exploration Program Executive (Dave Lavery) truly embrace NASA's Vision Statement:
To understand and protect our home planet,
To explore the Universe and search for life, and
To inspire the next generation of explorers... as only NASA can.
They've put the agency's (actually, our taxpayer's) money where their mouth is, a heroic task in such a difficult budgetary environment.

Teams that received a NASA grant this year should use this support to encourage other sponsors to invest in their teams future as well. There's an big opportunity to leverage the NASA grant money and recapture support from the corporate sector. In the eyes of the public, NASA holds a special place among government agencies, rooted of integrity and "can do" attitude. Placing NASA logos prominently on your robot, team shirts, and website not only acknowledges NASA's support, but can also help attract sponsors.

Please thank NASA by making the most of their commitment to you. Have a safe, successful season and be inspired!
