  1. well if nasa had simply sent dear leader some golden trinkets as tribute maybe he’d be able to spell it’s name. it didn’t, so that money needs to get shifted to true americans, like elon and melei. /s

    we’re just handing space over to china at this point.

  2. How long until this post is removed by the right wing mod for criticizing the US? I give it 10 mins.

    Don’t worry, snowflake, I know when you’re sleeping, so I’ll just post then.

  3. > Priorities outlined in the White House’s fiscal year 2026 (FY26) budget request in May, which has yet to be approved by Congress, were embraced as if it were already law by GSFC leadership

    That’s one way to put it… I think it’s a bit more accurate to say that three top center leaders (the three top people at GSFC, in leadership anyway) have resigned in the past three months, and the remaining leadership is following the guidance from HQ. Because they work for the executive and therefore they serve at the pleasure of the office of the President of the United States, who has shown every willingness to remove those who disagree with the proposed budget cuts.
