- Sainmhíniú --- Tagairt "NASA’s Decadal Planning Team (DPT) and the NASA Exploration Team (NEXT), by Harley Thronson (NASA Goddard Space Flight Center) > Abstract, http://history.nasa.gov/DPT/thronson.pdf (16.11.2009)"
- Nóta ... in June 1999, the NASA Administrator chartered a small internal NASA task force, the Decadal Planning Team (DPT), to create a new integrated vision and strategy for space exploration....The efforts of the Decadal Planning Team evolved after about a year into the Agency-wide team known as the NASA Exploration Team (NEXT). NEXT established a cross-enterprise, cross-Center systems engineering team with emphasis focused on revolutionary, as opposed to evolutionary, approaches. This confidential team was instructed to develop technology roadmaps that would enable science- and discovery-driven human and robotic exploration. Again, the goal of NASA leadership for this follow-on activity was to keep its visibility low and its effect on NASA’s future high....After three years, the DPT and NEXT activities led directly into the studies and priorities developed by the newly created Space Architect office at NASA Headquarters and then to the President’s “Vision for Space Exploration.” ... several of the original members of DPT/NEXT activities remained for a time at NASA Headquarters ... many of the recommendations and some of the personnel from DPT/NEXT were acquired by the NASA Space Architect before that position was terminated in 2005.
