Keith’s note: According to a press release from AFGE, AFL-CIO Union: “The Union representing Federal employees at the NASA Wallops Flight Facility is calling on Congressional leaders, local government officials, economic stakeholders, and the public to take immediate action to stop the proposed closure of the NASA Wallops Visitor Center (WVC) – a decision that, if enacted, would inflict irreparable harm on the community, the regional economy, and NASA’s public […] The post Union Pus...| Education Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: Cutting NASA Education and then doing a book reading – While the Administration seeks to end all funding for NASA’s education efforts – as if that somehow makes it all better. Who comes up with these ideas? NASA’s tweet: @NASA Tomorrow, Aug. 4, @SLOTUS Usha Vance will join astronaut Suni Williams at @NASAJohnson to read a space-related book to children. Submit questions at http://go.nasa.gov/4mqU0xZ and watch NASA+ starting […] The post Its OK To Cut NASA Education I...| Budget Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: I was just on Bloomberg TV for the SpaceX Crew 11 launch which was scrubbed due to weather. I stayed on and talked about NASA layoffs, budget issues, and Ted Cruz’s support for the International Space Station – and moving the Space Shuttle to Texas. Let’s see what happens tomorrow.

Keith’s note: The following was issued by House Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee Democrats: Yesterday, Ranking Member Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) and Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee Ranking Member Valerie Foushee (D-NC) wrote a letter to National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Interim Administrator Sean Duffy warning him of the dire consequences to U.S. leadership in space if the administration illegally impounds congressionally appropriated FY25 funds for NASA.

Keith’s note: There is a meeting next week regarding Landsat: Sustainable Land Imaging Mission Alternatives Analysis Team Industry. The meeting is looking for the cheapest way to do the least with Landsat as a result of the President’s FY 2026 Budget Request. The PBR seeks to cancel Landsat missions and descope Earth science budgets at NASA. One small problem: NASA is acting as if the PBR is the actual budget […] The post NASA Prepares To Gut Its Landsat Capabilities appeared first on N...| TrumpSpace Archives - NASA Watch

Keith’s note: according to this Reuters article: “NASA Chief of Staff Brian Hughes speaking at the same town hall, agreed, saying it would “probably be considered irresponsible” to wait for the congressional budget process. The letter added that Hughes recently ordered NASA science programs targeted for cancellation in Trump’s budget request to stop issuing press releases celebrating new scientific results and achievements.” In addition, senior staff at recent meetings at […] Th...| TrumpSpace Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: There is a new, rather detailed and annotated “Statement of Solidarity and Support” out called “The NASA Voyager Declaration“ regarding the current state of affairs at NASA. It is modeled after similar efforts by employees at EPA, NIH, and elsewhere within the Federal government. It opens with: “Dear Interim Administrator Duffy, In light of your recent appointment as Interim NASA Administrator, we bring to your attention recent policies […] The post The NASA Voyage...| TrumpSpace Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: according to a group of concerned citizens: There will be a “Save NASA” protest coming up on Sunday, July 20th. Our group previously organized the protest in front of NASA Headquarters in DC on June 30th. We are a peaceful protest group, and we stand in solidarity with other scientific advocacy groups. (More below) This time, we are gathering on the historically appropriate Moon Day, the anniversary of […] The post Upcoming “Save NASA” Protest In Washington, DC a...| Budget Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: Update on the earlier post Going Out Of Business Sale For JPL Satellites: emails are circulating within JPL and NASA that mention a number of satellites that are listed as being targeted for shut down in the President’s FY 2026 budget request. NASA HQ is apparently not waiting for an actual budget. The list of satellites of the discount rack at NASA now includes OCO-2, OCO-3, SAGE III, […] The post But Wait: More Used Satellite Bargains At NASA appeared first on NASA Watch.| Budget Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: Apparently Janet Petro did not ‘Embrace The Challenge’ hard enough when it came to getting people at NASA to quit – thus leading to her replacement – even thought the NASA website says she is still in charge. At least that is what senior NASA leadership tells me. Interim (i.e part time) NASA Administrator (and also Secretary of Transportation) Sean Duffy is a 100% Administration loyalist so he […] The post Part Time NASA Administrator Update appeared first on NASA Wa...| Budget Archives - NASA Watch
