Here’s how NASA is incentivizing open science, and how you can too, according to ChelleGentemann
I’m a computational oceanographer and have worked on NASA missions since 1993. I became an enthusiastic open-science advocate after I attended a 2018 workshop at which we reproduced a set of famous figures that analysed satellite data to reveal rising sea levels . Using a cloud-based data set and open-source Python tools, we did in a couple of minutes what probably originally took months. It was a moment when I could see the future and just leapt because it was so beautiful.
In May 2021, I sent a one-page call to action for a Year of Open Science to NASA’s chief science data officer, and received immediate support. NASA headquarters formed a team to develop the concept. We talked to as many people as possible to learn their motivations, concerns and future needs related to open science. After a year of such discussions, we had a path forward.
During the Year of Open Science, NASA is hosting free in-person and virtual workshops to teach basic open-science skills: how to participate, how to write a data-management or software-management plan, and how to share data, software and results. Enrolment has already started . By May 2023, there will be five modules, and anyone who completes all five will receive a NASA Open Science Certification to add to their CV and funding proposals.
