Tue Jul 1 16:12:02 CDT 2014

That's because NASA has one of the best government style/branding guides
<https://users.cs.jmu.edu/bernstdh/web/common/policies/NASA_StyleGuide_Nov06.pdf>
out there. It includes everything from newsletters, to aircraft logo
placement, to fonts used. Every office uses it, yet maintains uniqueness of
each. NASA also has one of the best grasps of social media. See there
accounts at http://www.nasa.gov/socialmedia/.
