Landing the Curiosity rover on Mars?was a big feat for?NASA, but we could not have done it without the work of small businesses.
On Wednesday, Sept. 19, I'm joining Administrator Karen Mills of the?Small Business Administration?for a?Google+ Hangout?with?ATA Engineering, one of the small businesses that made the Mars Science Laboratory mission landing a success.
Google+ members and reporters are welcome to join the discussion from 10:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. EDT Wednesday. Administrator Mills and I will talk with representatives of ATA about their work to design and analyze the design of the entry, descent and landing process ? known as "Seven Minutes of Terror" ? as well as other systems operating the Curiosity rover.
The Google+ Hangout will go live here: http://plus.google.com/+NASA
You can join in the conversation on Wednesday by submitting your questions during the Google+ Hangout and on Twitter using the hashtag #AskNASA.
Charles Bolden is the NASA Administrator.
