Analysis Group Looks into Mars Exploration

The Mars Exploration Program Analysis Group (MEPAG) Executive Committee looked over the Mars exploration program to see if it was worthwhile. Often times in the business world, a business will bring in an outside analysis group to look over their projects and make sure that the project is running effectively and efficiently. They are able to bring in an outside perspective and cut areas that are not being beneficial to the project. That is what this MEPAG group is doing for Mars. They demanded updates and current status of Mars and be kept in the loop of what was developing.
