Would you mind sharing the google query? Getting to this with a google query seems magical!

"user * password *" site:nasa.gov filetype:txt

And I just stumbled upon this:

But that's pretty bad!

Prompted me to do a little experimentation with google query parameters. Some potentially concerning stuff out there... This one seems offline, but a typical example: ftp://asapdata.arc.nasa.gov/incoming/BOB/HyspIRI/data-bob/00_README.MASTERweb_updating.txt 3. Login to MASTER database: http://asterdb.jpl.nasa.gov/log/dbstart.asp a. User: eric; Password: Upd8t3r

Maybe it's on their intranet? It doesn't seem to be accessible.

Nevermind, just got to it :P.

No, really... what is the point of this page?

Probably someone testing their server configuration and forgot to remove it.

Because it's still somewhat structured instead of not structured?

Why not a or a then? I think this is the key thing to discuss here.

It seems like it's not really all that interesting...

So I have the same testing plan as astronauts?

Only if you are developing in space.

Can someone explain the purpose of this page? I'm feeling a little out of the loop at the moment...

It's about Updog!

I'm sorry you received downvotes for asking a question.

Based on the url (test.html), I would imagine this was just someone's quick one-off attempt to see if something worked that ended up getting left behind.

Edit: Looks like this was already answered downthread in the time that I took reading the comments. Whoops.
