What are the gold rules of space flight?

The GOLD Rules focus on fundamental principles and practices, and therefore are intended to apply to all space flight projects (and where applicable, associated ground projects) regardless of implementation approach or mission classification (except where explicitly noted).

What is the active standard for Goddard Space Flight Center?
