I am inclined to believe it. I've read about their organizational issues, and internal politics. It seems to me that they might benefit from reorganization. I am not familiar with the structure of NASA, but it seems to me that one project director should have ultimate power in seeing a project to completion, and that he/she should alone determine who is going to be assigned to each individual component. Like any massive undertaking, you need someone with executive power over all those that are part of the endeavor.
