Richard Eckman @richeckmanatm.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Keith Cowing noted the impact on the NASA workforce that this huge, planned budget reduction would have. So far, NASA has avoided the huge reductions in force that other agencies have endured. This will be a massacre of highly talented people. So much for US preeminence in science... 033
