I am not sure Gingrich is calling any shots. He suddenly got kind of sidelined once the 5 year ban on lobbyists was announced.

Newt has huge connections to the industry and in my mind should be considered a lobbyist.

As much as I’d like to “Make the Moon Great Again”, Trump’s team needs to cut out NASA’s politically correct silliness first, then start focusing on programs that benefit Americans here on earth.

No, she has to go to Jupiter.

But now Muslims will feel left out, especially after so many unheralded contributions to science and space exploration. What to do????!!!

Yes, but the moon is one step closer to Jupiter - and it gets her off this planet.

How will this affect NASA’s muslim outreach program?

It sure would be a shame to lose their eight years of progress on that front...

I am looking forward to this country once again doing things that are both imaginative and good for our industry and security. Plus, we may resolve some enduring mysteries:

NASA should be re-directed to updating the nations airports. Installing state of the art equipment and improving safety.

They should totally dump the “Muslim outreach” crap, and stick to their specialties.

The National Areonautics and Space Administration needs to work within their title, and leave the socialism stuff by the wayside.

This would greatly fulfill the airport infrastructure promises Trump made in his campaign. Two birds with one stone...and, MORE JOBS!
