To The NASA Family:<\/strong> Selfish, shortsighted power brokers are toying with America\u2019s technological leadership in a game of brinksmanship. People suffer as a result. It is people who enable science agencies and research organizations to discover and explore the unknown. From subatomic structure and the chemistry of life \u2013 to the structure of the universe and the tools to explore it \u2013 NASA is singular in its ability to explore existence at every known scale of time and cosmic organization. More below<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Like all of you, I saw \u2013 and still see \u2013 NASA and the mission of its larger community \u2013 the exploration of space \u2013 as a calling. In my case the dream started 65 years ago. As the old saying goes, you can leave NASA but it never leaves you. And the younger you are when the space bug bites, the harder it is to shake.<\/p>\n Chaos is hours away. Government shutdowns, more layoffs, mission cancellations \u2013 there are plans for all of these various scenarios \u2013 things that you are purposefully being kept in the dark about. Whether more personnel and mission carnage will be implemented \u2013 or not \u2013 is now in the realm of Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s cat. We\u2019ll know when the box is opened \u2013 but not before it is opened.<\/p>\n I was interviewed today for a documentary. I was asked what I saw for NASA in the years ahead \u2013 would NASA even exist? I was rather blunt in my response: \u201cI cannot foresee a future America without NASA\u201d. Neither can you.<\/p>\n
