I found a bunch of old projects out here from a program I work on in the realm of Earth Science. Things from 2002 and 2004 that have probably not been used in over 10 years (and some from the same time frame that are still in production).&lt;p&gt;It has been really hard for us to open source things lately - our last project took more than a year. I did find it on this page: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;nasa&amp;#x2F;earthdata-search&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;nasa&amp;#x2F;earthdata-search&lt;/a&gt;. We are still working on open sourcing a couple more of our projects.&lt;p&gt;We&amp;#x27;ve been told one of NASA&amp;#x27;s recent goals is to significantly improve the open source process so hopefully we&amp;#x27;ll see more of the current projects become open source.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>NASA Open Source Software</title><url>https://code.nasa.gov/#/</url></story>
