"The Ocean-Space Shift NASA’s Untold Pivot," explores the misconception that NASA once extensively explored the ocean and then ceased, possibly due to a hidden discovery. The author argues that NASA's primary focus has consistently been space exploration since its inception in 1958, driven by Cold War priorities and its mandate. While NASA has engaged in some ocean-related projects, such as satellite monitoring and technology testing, these were typically in service of its broader space objectives or Earth science studies. The book aims to dispel the myth of NASA abandoning the ocean, explaining that oceanographic research was largely the domain of other agencies like NOAA, and NASA's limited involvement was strategic rather than a retreat from some unknown oceanic terror.
