The full form of NASA is National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). NASA is an executive branch agency of the United States government, responsible for the nation's civilian space program and aeronautics and aerospace research. Since February 2006, NASA's self-described mission statement is to "pioneer the future in space exploration, scientific discovery and aeronautics research."[5] On September 14, 2011, NASA announced that it had selected the design of a new Space Launch System that it said would take the agency's astronauts farther into space than ever before and provide the cornerstone for future human space exploration efforts by the U.S.[6][7][8]

NASA was established by the National Aeronautics and Space Act on July 29, 1958, replacing its predecessor, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA). The agency became operational on October 1, 1958.[9][10] U.S. space exploration efforts have since been led by NASA, including the Apollo moon-landing missions, the Skylab space station, and later the Space Shuttle. Currently, NASA is supporting the International Space Station and is developing the manned Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle. The agency is also responsible for theLaunch Services Program (LSP) which provides oversight of launch operations and countdown management for unmanned NASA launches.

NASA science is focused on better understanding Earth through the Earth Observing System,[11] advancing heliophysics through the efforts of the Science Mission Directorate's Heliophysics Research Program,[12] exploring bodies throughout the Solar System with advanced robotic missions such as New Horizons,[13] and researching astrophysics topics, such as the Big Bang, through the Great Observatoriesand associated programs.[14] NASA shares data with various national and international organizations such as from the Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite.

Asked by Wiki User

Like any civilian company, it varies with the job they hold. NASA employs managers, engineers, research scientists, administrative staff and everything else right down to security guards and janitors (though some of these are subcontracted out). All in all they pay competive wages and have good benefits.

What does a nutritionist do?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Daily activities in the nutrition field vary quite a bit and that all depends on your area of expertise and where you work. There are really about 4 main categories of nutritionists: Clinical Nutritionists, Community Nutritionist, Management, and Consulting Nutritionists. and these Nutritionists work in Hospitals, Community clinics, Schools, Hotels or resorts, government agencies, sport clinics. and the list goes on and on.

Good traits of a nutritionist are enjoying what you do first off. If you feel personally rewarded by helping others you are on the right track. You want to be well informed on nutrition and be confident and reassuring. You will need good people skills because you might be working one on one with a patient.

To get the knowledge you need to be a well informed up to date nutritionist or dietitian you will need good schooling. You might want to start with a degree in nutritional science. There are many schools that offer this degree. There are also online schools that offer this degree such as Kaplan College. That is where i got my bachelors in Nutrition Science and really helped launch my career.

If you do decide to further your career and become a registered dietitian you will need to follow the ADA requirements to get this title.
A nutritionist advises a person on the nutritional value of foods which allows them to make better choices of food.
