Keith’s note: We are the first nation to sail between the stars. America is already “Great in Space”. Lets make it – make NASA – even greater – not weaker. The post NASA Is The Only Agency To Sail Between The Stars appeared first on NASA Watch.| Space & Planetary Science Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: NASA has a Planetary Defense Program. They want to find asteroids that might pose a risk before they pose a threat. The other day the Vera Rubin Observatory released imagery of a variety of objects including 2,104 previously unknown asteroids discovered in just a few hours by this new instrument. NASA has ignored the Rubin observatory’s debut altogether while the rest of the world stopped to pay attention. […] The post NASA Planetary Defense Ignores Rubin Observatory’s A...| Space & Planetary Science Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: I was just on Alhurra TV (a VOA Arabic language network) talk about space weather and the solar maximum period that has been reached by our sun. More info from NASA. Also, there is an Internet rumor that keeps popping up that says that NASA issued a scary warning that all the Internet could go out. Well, that popped up in March and Snopes et al knocked it […] The post NASAWatch on Alhurra: Space Weather Fact Check appeared first on NASA Watch.| Web Site News Archives - NASA Watch

Keith’s note: Thomas Zurbuchen was the longest serving Associate Administrator of the NASA Space Science Directorate. In this interview with Kristin Fisher, Zurbuchen warns that the proposed budget would send parts of NASA’s science portfolio “out of business,” undermine American leadership in space science, and risk a mass exodus of talent from NASA’s ranks.

Keith’s note: NASA’s Planetary Science Analysis/Assessment Groups have issued a document dated 6 May 2025, titled “AGness”. According to the authors (which has been annotated to enhance clarity, original document below), addressing members of the planetary science community: “The linked document below, The Keys of AGness, is a product of the collective Planetary Analysis and Assessment Groups (AGs), presented by their Chairs and vetted through their respective Steering/Executive Com...| Space Life Science Archives - NASA Watch

Keith’s note: (This stream of consciousness bubbled out of my head on a Sunday night) One of the potential victims of the upcoming NASA budget cuts is the Mars Sample Return. Its had its problems with cost and schedule and complexity. But what if you did not need to return the samples from Mars? The whole idea behind NASA’s Mars Sample Return mission is to gather samples and return them […]| NASA Watch
