NASA wants an independent contractor to create an electronic archive of its huge repository of images and films.

Trying to stay on budget, the agency will not pay for the work, but rather offer the successful bidder an opportunity to use the materials however it seems best including commercially.

Am I the only one who feels antsy about NASA selling its materials to an outside vendor? (via ResearchBuzz)
