The objective of generating capital for the U.S. government is not one of the six objectives of the Human Genome Project. The actual objectives are to generate physical, genetic, and sequence maps of the human genome, to sequence the genomes of a variety of organisms, to consider the ethical, social, and legal challenges posed by genomic information, to develop new technologies, to improve the tools for data analysis, and to train the next generation of researchers.
