More and more public or famous institutions take all their publications or reports to the digital world. Thus we have many news from the European Union or the Vatican that are uploading their most secret or unknown documents to the Internet to get them for free and be able to enjoy them through our eReader, mobile or computer.
The institution that recently made such an undertaking has been The NASA, to the most famous Aerospace Agency in the world but also the one that fewer documents and public investigations are available to the end user. Until now.
Recently NASA has enabled a public website where any user from anywhere in the world can have access to the research they have carried out over the years, from the arrival on the Moon to the latest information on the moon Titan. Everything will be for free in PubSpace, the name of said website.
PubSpace will be one of NASA's websites for free information and publications
The undertaking ahead of NASA is huge and time consuming, but we can already get more than 850 titles, a catalog that will be expanded little by little, although some investigations, especially those that are active, will not be published until its completion or later.
This news about NASA reminds us that little by little institutions are opening up more to the world, making their documentation more accessible through the Internet. Thus, the European Union recently announced that 2020 had been imposed as the year in which all your documentation will be digitized and published on the official website for anyone's use.
And there is always a broken for an unstitched. While in other countries digitization is considered an obligation, in Spain we continue to have gaps and institutions that deny the publication of certain documents, something illogical but that represents a part of Spain, fortunately that part is increasingly smaller Do not you think?
