Trump just continually shooting our country in the face. This unwarranted (and likely illegal) destruction of Goddard is madness. It jeopardizes the next several decades of space exploration.
Reposting to correct an error: trump admin is quietly gutting 13 buildings and about 100 laboratories at Goddard campus that has been instrumental to Hubble and James Webb telescope missions. Staff say they’ve be locked and told to move equipment. Anything left behind will be thrown away.
NASA may be quietly gutting an iconic campus with what it calls strategic closures, workers fear

I've recently started working 50% time in the UK, 50% in the US. I just changed the language on my computer to avoid annoying misspellings when I'm trying to be a Brit. Charmingly, Mac OS changed my TRASH can to a BIN.

I'm happy to see that there will be at least 140 "No Kings" protests across my state of Massachusetts on Saturday. I'll be out there, showing that I oppose this administration's policies.
And what's more, I want its officials to have to answer for their mistakes and for their outright crimes.
