TIL @nasa estimates that 20% of the ISS will survive deorbit! Scuba adventures anyone?

The NASA budget proposal released last Thurs seemingly spared some missions, while canceling many others. However, that isn't the full story. When you understand how missions are staffed you will understand that NONE of the missions are safe. A 🧵 https://t.co/9ttcIRxqK5

Trump Administration attack on science, graphed:

This Thursday in DC, @RedHat and @CommerceGov co-host an open forum on #cybersecurity for space systems, featuring speakers from OSC, @NOAASatellites, and @NISTcyber. Register now: https://t.co/FFsV9wh9G3

Today I joined Senator @ChrisVanHollen and @RepGlennIvey at @NASAGoddard to learn more about the center's extraordinary work. We'll keep fighting against Trump’s proposed cuts to ensure the U.S. continues to be a leader in space, science, & exploration. https://t.co/vta6TFNfHe

If the Trump White House gets their way: • Mars Sample Return—canceled • Roman Space Telescope—canceled • DAVINCI—canceled • Goddard Space Flight Center—likely closed

@USWeatherExpert @NbergWX If you eviscerate OAR, you ground NOAA hurricane hunters. No TDR, no AXBTs, no sUAS. Critical input to forecasts. You sideline all hurricane models, including HAFS. Forecasters will be flying blind in critical situations. It would *absolutely* undo decades of progress.

Massive (68%) cut to NASA astrophysics proposed in WH budget. If this stands, it's the end of American pre-eminence in space science.

I generally refrain from commenting on subjective NASA politics, but losing the Roman space telescope when it is so close to launch would be disastrous.

Feeling just kinda shellshocked at the proposal to close GSFC. It's the center most near and dear to my heart, it's where I became an engineer and spent most of my adult life working. It's a gem of a scientific research powerhouse, there's literally nothing quite like it.

“They’re going to run NASA into a very deep ditch if they proceed with this kind of savagery,” Bill Nelson, the NASA administrator under President Joe Biden, said in an interview.” NASA science budget faces massive cuts in Trump proposal.

TRaCSS is the latest evolution of the USG sharing notification of potential close approaches - we've been doing it not out of the goodness of our hearts but because spaceflight safety serves our interest. This is so short-sighted https://t.co/Na857nQBWz

A 47% cut to NASA Science. This could mean entire closure of NASA facilities in various states. This seems to shift NASA's sole focus to human exploration. But I don't want American flags on the Moon/Mars if it means giving up the rest of the universe.

There have been 46 cases in which federal judges have blocked Trump policies. The rulings in those cases have come from 39 different judges appointed by 5 different presidents of both parties to 11 different district courts in 7 different circuits. Maybe it's not the judges?

Air Force weighs plan to cancel SDA’s next set of data relay sats in favor of SpaceX: Sources

A straight-up lie from a NASA press secretary

Breaking: All Rs trying to remove Columbus from our country, prefer Indigenous Peoples Day over Columbus Day (I think this is the way we're supposed to use this platform now right?)

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick: "Let's say Social Security didn't send out their checks this month, my mother-in-law wouldn't call and complain. She just wouldn't."

Oof. Hard to read, harder to watch. The astronauts are not stuck, people telling you otherwise have a long history of lying for attention.

What's happening - and what's being threatened to happen - to NOAA is a travesty and affects YOU directly. Let me explain. 🧵
