This is definitely the most important thing for the country and for human space exploration as a whole.

With internet archive head quarters being in the US what would happen if the administration went after them? Would people from other countries be able to keep the project going?

I am sure all of them have the skills set and accounts to spend all day for this...

Headline is hyperbolic

Talk about hidden figures…

Cultural genocide

Some tech workers*

Depends on what the cops would do.

What happened to indigenous people and women? I swear I saw one just an hour ago so it seems like they still exist. Maybe not?

Janet Petro—the first woman to hold the position since its founding 67 years ago—wrote that diversity programs “divided Americans by race, wasted taxpayer dollars, and resulted in shameful discrimination,”

In 2021, when she was the director of Kennedy Space Center, she spoke at length in an interview about the value of diversity, saying “our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility has been paramount to mission success.”

The turnaround is giving me whiplash
