    Before the mods remove this post for being ‘political’ it’s worth remembering that Artemis’ goals are DEIA focused and therefore might be changed soon. This could have impacts with relationships with other agencies.

    From NASA’s website:
    > With the Artemis campaign, NASA will land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon, using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before.

    I don’t even see how this is political. It’s an event that’s happening and goes counter to the Artemis projects goals. It’s directly related to space. It seems reasonable to be able to discuss the impact.

    Screw letting those whiny ass people cry every time somebody reports on the crap they are pulling.

  3. I work at a different gov agency and the email is 100% cookie cutter. Department heads were likely handed a template to ship out to staff

    I’m not suggesting OP is saying this, but my reason for saying this is that Federal employees are doing their job by doing what the president has ordered it. There is no “buying in”. I don’t agree with it, but again, a lot of people are going to be following orders.

    I’m in shock, my whole life I thought standing for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility was what the good guys stood for. I’m being told this is very similar to former occupied Eastern Europe. I can’t believe this is NASA.
