NASA, through its National Space Science Data Center, has developed a program called the Minority University Space Interdisciplinary Network (MU-Spin). The program constitutes a major networking and education initiative for minority institutions, and other universities with large minority student enrollments. Connecting these institutions with the NASA Science Network, and promoting the activities such connections provide serve as primary goal of the program.
