C Characteristics of NASA's Recent Interagency Collaborations Table C.1 shows a side-by-side comparison of some of the key attributes of selected recent interagency col laborative efforts that were reviewed by the committee. In addition to the type of collaboration and governance structure, the committee noted whether the collaboration was directed by Congress or the administration or whether it emerged in a more spontaneous fashion from the agencies and scientists themselves.
