  1. What a disaster. It’s too bad we don’t have a media that doesn’t largely function as DNC propaganda.

  2. Well, as of this time, it’s a real job. Looks like the job ad will close on 4/16/21.

  3. My first thought was this is just another reminder what Democrats think of NASA. If they can get people to the moon, then they can solve green energy, as if they are the same thing. Teaching and babysitting isn’t rocket science, so NASA can do that too. Space isn’t important, as someone once noted.

    Then I realized, if the federal government needs NASA to stop working on aeronautics and space, but not to solve green energy; then journalist should realize just how bad this crisis on the border is. We are directing key national resources to caring for non-US citizens. This implies that our future development as a nation isn’t as important as providing education to children abandoned on our border. And if you think that is a worthy cause, consider nearly half of US school age children are still not attending daily in class teaching, but we are sending NASA personnel to provide such to foreign nationals.

    VP Harris has failed us.

    1. It’s probably typical political fire fighting. They have to do something with those kids right now while space (and probably plenty of other things) is later.
