    While NASA already has plenty of scientists, it still regularly works with research teams from various universities and non-profit orgs. It even created the Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute (SSERVI) to oversee some of its collaborations. In fact, the agency has added four new teams looking to study the moon, near-Earth asteroids and Martian moons Phobos and Deimos to SSERVI's roster. The first group from the University of Colorado plans to conduct a study on robotics, cosmology, astrophysics and heliophysics with the intention of advancing manned space exploration.
