INSA Fights PR Battle
| April 13, 2006 |  View for printing |
The Inland Northwest Space Alliance announced Tuesday that it has been selected to help develop a small secondary payload spacecraft as part of a NASA project to search for water on the moon in 2008.
The INSA’s role in the project seems small, especially when compared to the investigation surrounding the Missoula non-profit’s ties to the University of Montana, and more than 3 million in NASA grants that the organization has not sufficiently accounted for.
During that investigation representatives of both the University of Montana and the INSA have downplayed connections between the University and the organization, connections that this new project will most likely renew.
