Over the course of its history, NASA has nurtured partnerships with the private sector to facilitate the transfer of NASA-developed technologies. The benefits of these partnerships have reached throughout the economy and around the globe, as the resulting commercial products contributed to the development of services and technologies in the fields of health and medicine, transportation, public safety, consumer goods, environmental resources, computer technology, and industry. The National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 that created NASA called for the new agency to disseminate its technology for public benefit. More than 1,500 of the most compelling partnerships and innovations have been documented in NASA's Spinoff publication since 1976. Building on this dynamic history, NASA partnerships with the private sector continue to seek avenues by which technological achievements and innovations gleaned among the stars can be brought down to benefit our lives on Earth.
