Answer:

The correct answer is : Its a secondary Group.

Step-by-step explanation:

Secondary groups in sociology can be understood as large groups that develop later in life. These groups are usually Universities, large companies, sport-teams and the integrants of said groups share a common goal.

The relationships within individuals of these groups are not as close and personal as the relationships within individuals of primary groups.

However secondary groups contribute to the identity formation of the individual specially when the individual indentifies with the group values and goals.

In conclusion, Sociologically NASA is a secondary group to Guy's life.
