I’m posting this from a Quality Inn in Gallup, NM. We’re on our way to Golden, CO for Thanksgiving. I may post more on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, though, here are some space policy suggestions for the incoming administration from Jeff Greason.

The notion of Tim Walz calling J. D. Vance “weird” was bizarre.
Is it against the law? Maybe not.
Bob Zimmerman thinks that NASA is rushing Artemis II to fend of cancellation.
It is very strange that they are not being forthcoming about the heat shield.
Yes, it needs to be shaken up (if not simply abolished).
How Laura Helmuth helped to degrade science.
It’s not obvious that this professor of aerospace engineering knows that the sun is the hardest place to get to in the solar system. Escape from the solar system is easier.
SLS defenders are starting to sound desperate.
Note that there’s very little support in comments.
It’s still a couple months until Trump is inaugurated, but people have lost their fear. Though I suspect that it will take longer to cleanse academia, particularly of the anti-Semitism. But I expect a lot of those who have been the worst on campus may end up being (finally) deported.
[Update a couple minutes later[
The left will not go quietly. No, the fight has just begun, but the people are willing to do it now, and will not be cowed by them any longer.
Bob Zimmerman says that the American populace has awakened against the woke.
And western publics are finally turning on the “green” elites. They’ve figured out that it was never about the environment or the weather.
I’m sure that there are many NASA staffers hoping to flush it, but I wonder what percentage? It’s my impression that a lot of younger NASA people are woke.
