Some 15,000 NASA employees were sent home this week as a government shutdown began, halting work across much of an agency already grappling with budget cuts and widespread job losses.
But at least one NASA effort appears to be moving full steam ahead: the Artemis program.
With the goal of returning astronauts to the lunar surface for the first time in five decades, the Artemis program has been deemed essential work amid the government shutdown. The exception came as NASA leadership and a bipartisan group of lawmakers have made it clear they view beating China to the moon as a national security imperative.
people being thrown off health care and dying of preventable diseases, but hey let’s send 3 people to the moon to do nothing that hasn’t been done already.
Not true. X-59 was exempted on its way to first flight as well as many other aeronautics projects like global hawk.
Don’t forget NASA does aeronautics too and isn’t only just Johnson and Kennedy
Every day I am thankful that JWST launched before all of this insanity.
