The Powerbase interviews Jeremey Parker who hacked NASA, stole $250,000 and served 2 years for his crime.

On June 14th, 2011, Jeremey Parker was sentenced to 24 months in prison on charges of wire fraud. The sentence was the result of a plea agreement wherein Parker admitted he gained access to the servers of a subsidiary of Digital River Inc and siphoned approximately $275,000 into his personal bank account, and additionally, broke into two servers operated by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center which were responsible for recording oceanographic data from orbiting satellites.
