NASA uses a mix of both metric and Imperial (US Customary) systems, creating a hybrid approach. While the metric system is primarily used for science, navigation, and international collaboration (e.g., the International Space Station), Imperial units are frequently used for aerospace engineering, Shuttle-era legacy hardware, and public communication.
