A yes-man and sycophant who will put personal success and progression above the scientific objectives of the organisation which he serves.
He goes by many names, but most know him as “Science as a service man”.
I think it is a good pick and almost certainly the only good pick of the entire administration.
If there was one institution besides aerospace that needs massive changes and gutting it would be nuclear regulatory commission. It’s full of absolute brainwashed morons that think it’s perfectly reasonable to create a mountain of paperwork if an employee stubs their toe.
The whole nuclear industry is full of unscientific nonsense.
Who cares? He’ll be fired within a year anyway
NASA could do way worse. This is someone that actually cares about science and space progress. Now, being the administrator, you might need political skills as much as area knowledge so maybe that is not enough. It is a good start though.
I also expect him to pass the senate with bipartisan support which would be a nice change.
They should get that guy that closed down toys r us. I mean that’s basically what this admin is trying to do anyways. Because they don’t want a little thing like decades of science making them look like fools.
He’s a good pick imo. Duffy wanted to fold NASA into the DOT. Ideally, Isaacman would be even more science happy and all that, but… with the state NASA is currently in… he’s gotta earn back the good will that has been lost over the last several years. And… well, he’s at least got more good will then Duffy has.
Presumably another pedo/rapist/drunk/drug addict (pick one) that needs protection.
