Hmm, if you look at these you see some worrying choices they've made for 
URI's:

from http://nasataxonomy.jpl.nasa.gov/xml/instruments.skos
    <skos:Concept rdf:about='inst:8'>
     <skos:prefLabel>Cameras</skos:prefLabel>
     <skos:broader rdf:resource='inst:1'/>
     <skos:narrower rdf:resource='inst:9'/>

from http://nasataxonomy.jpl.nasa.gov/xml/missionsprojects.skos
      <skos:Concept rdf:about='nas:misproj:755'>

from http://nasataxonomy.jpl.nasa.gov/xml/organizations.skos
       <skos:Concept rdf:about='nasa:org:117'>
