NASA
CASE  STUDY  
IDEASCALE  


NASA’s Mars Program Planning Group (MPPG) had a driving purpose: to develop options for a
program- level architecture for robotic exploration of Mars that is consistent with the President's
challenge of sending humans to Mars orbit in the decade of the 2030s, yet remain responsive to the
primary scientific goals of the 2011 NRC Decadal Survey for Planetary Science. This means investing
in a number of different initiatives including spaceflight, ground-based investigations, key
technologies and more.
But the MPPG also wanted a way to engage and inform the public about the progress of Mars
exploration, so as the program proceeded and the landing of the Curiosity Rover drew near, the
MPPG launched an idea forum using IdeaScale technology where users could ask questions and
share ideas related to Mars exploration.
The level of engagement on the new Mars Forum was impressive:
• Nearly 1,300  ci2zens  signed  up to ask questions and share ideas, resulting in a total  559  
submissions  in  just  three  months.
• A key learning was that the  public  expects  humans  to  explore  Mars  in  the  future (4 of the top
10 ideas related to a human presence on Mars including questions about a permanent settlement
and terraforming opportunities).
• Not only did visitors make suggestions, they asked  and  answered  ques2ons, generating ongoing
conversations.
• The Mars Forum responded by generating some new, rich content of its own for users, including
a highly-developed 30-question-deep answer page based on Mars Forum content.
• Addi2onally,  the  MPPG  generated  a  new  video  page  in  which  Mars  experts  weighed  in  on  
Mars  Forum  hot  topics  in  twelve  original  videos, to further enrich and evolve the conversation.

In the future, the MPPG hopes to engage the public even more deeply in Mars exploration (possibly
in data analysis, brainstorming, coding, and more). That means future missions will continue to
engage and encourage the crowd’s participation in even more defined ways.
“Millions of people tuned in to watch Curiosity land, and IdeaScale  gave  them  a  way  to  be  a  part  of  
the  future  explora2on  of  Mars,”  said Rocky Lind, Information and Communications Coordinator at
NASA, “More than simply gathering ideas, we want to excite the imagination and encourage
engagement. IdeaScale allowed visitors to our site to do that in a number of different ways. It helps
us decide what content to put on our site and what questions we ask in the future.”

Case Study: NASA Mars Forum

  • 2. 
 NASA’s Mars Program Planning Group (MPPG) had a driving purpose: to develop options for a program- level architecture for robotic exploration of Mars that is consistent with the President's challenge of sending humans to Mars orbit in the decade of the 2030s, yet remain responsive to the primary scientific goals of the 2011 NRC Decadal Survey for Planetary Science. This means investing in a number of different initiatives including spaceflight, ground-based investigations, key technologies and more. But the MPPG also wanted a way to engage and inform the public about the progress of Mars exploration, so as the program proceeded and the landing of the Curiosity Rover drew near, the MPPG launched an idea forum using IdeaScale technology where users could ask questions and share ideas related to Mars exploration. The level of engagement on the new Mars Forum was impressive: • Nearly 1,300  ci2zens  signed  up to ask questions and share ideas, resulting in a total  559   submissions  in  just  three  months. • A key learning was that the  public  expects  humans  to  explore  Mars  in  the  future (4 of the top 10 ideas related to a human presence on Mars including questions about a permanent settlement and terraforming opportunities). • Not only did visitors make suggestions, they asked  and  answered  ques2ons, generating ongoing conversations. • The Mars Forum responded by generating some new, rich content of its own for users, including a highly-developed 30-question-deep answer page based on Mars Forum content. • Addi2onally,  the  MPPG  generated  a  new  video  page  in  which  Mars  experts  weighed  in  on   Mars  Forum  hot  topics  in  twelve  original  videos, to further enrich and evolve the conversation. 2IdeaScale  Case  Studies NASA The Mars Program Planning Group’s Evolving Conversation
  • 3. 2IdeaScale  Case  Studies In the future, the MPPG hopes to engage the public even more deeply in Mars exploration (possibly in data analysis, brainstorming, coding, and more). That means future missions will continue to engage and encourage the crowd’s participation in even more defined ways. “Millions of people tuned in to watch Curiosity land, and IdeaScale  gave  them  a  way  to  be  a  part  of   the  future  explora2on  of  Mars,”  said Rocky Lind, Information and Communications Coordinator at NASA, “More than simply gathering ideas, we want to excite the imagination and encourage engagement. IdeaScale allowed visitors to our site to do that in a number of different ways. It helps us decide what content to put on our site and what questions we ask in the future.” To learn more about the Mars Program Planning Group, visit www.nasa.gov/marsplanning.
