Why Does NASA Pay CalTech $2,827,348,527 Every Year?
Ғылым және технология
It's not surprising to see space companies like Blue Origin, SpaceX, and Lockheed Martin near the top of NASA's payout list. However, the largest benefactor is none of those companies, but actually the California Institute of Technology or CalTech. Every year, CalTech receives nearly $3 billion in funding for operating the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory or JPL are the people behind all of the Mars rovers, the Voyager missions, and the Viking missions. In fact, JPL actually outdates NASA themselves. JPL was originally started way back in October of 1936 when Professor Von Karman and a group of graduate students decided to experiment with some rocket engines. Originally, they worked with the US Army and provided them with jet propulsion technology and missile guidance technology. Eventually though, after NASA was established, JPL basically became a subsidiary of NASA. This video describes the history of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory run by CalTech and why JPL gets paid billions every single year.

I learned something new today. I thought JPL was a stand-alone company. The US obviously needs to keep funding this tech giant!

So basically, Cal tech is NASA's R&D company

It’s the only part of NASA that is out of NASA’s control - and the only part that isn’t crippled by waste and bureaucracy. SpaceX has begun to operate as a de facto second tech center for NASA. Why not just close the other parts of NASA down and either save that money or give it to JPL and SpaceX?

The interesting thing about JPL is that almost every project they do, is a R&D project. They propose projects that have never been do before to NASA and if selected, they get to design, build, test and operate the missions. A very interesting place to work!!

Actually Theodor Karman (Kármán Tódor) was a hungarian born scientist. The HQ of JPL is called Von Karman building and the theoretical boundry of space, the 100km line above earth also named after him (Karman line).

JPL is why the Mars missions are possible.
Great information. I'd just like to add that the Voyager probes were launched on a strict time frame to take advantage of the once in every 175 year planetary alignment that allowed these craft to visit all the solar system planets beyond earth in a single mission. They really were a remarkable achievement that taught us so much about our planets, most especially those beyond Saturn, which to this day, lie largely out of our reach for direct visitation due to the huge distances involved.

A tour of the JPL in Pasadena, CA is one of the hardest tickets to secure in So Cal due to intense public interest. You must book well in advance and no walk ups are taken in. Now with the Mars helicopter more interest will lead to longer waits to enter JPL. 😿

I assume that is computer voice. Though the content is good. The occasional gross mispronunciation is disconcerting. The often unrelated or misplaced video to subject is also unprofessional. You need better editors. I might add Cal Tech is a small university (2,300 students compared with MIT's 11,500) that is not noted for their football teams. Cal Tech has the highest average SAT/ACT scores of any US university and by inference the smartest student body.
