Good news is more than 40% of NASA scientists are women. That includes the first NASA transgender Program Director.

The company suspects a stuck valve caused a tank to rupture.

Remember when we did the Moonshot?

C’mon! C’mon!

Going into space is hard and very few people have the intellect to design aerospace components. And even then, they still sometimes fail.

Despite Hollywood and NASA propaganda that “anyone can do it.”

A U.S. company’s lunar lander will soon burn up in Earth’s atmosphere after a failed moonshot.

I thought this was a NASA mission? or is that something different?

Isn’t NASA scheduled to go to the moon in 2024?

Can you IMAGINE the taunting headlines if this had happened on President Trump's watch?

Astrobotic Technology?

Why was a company that has never demonstrated success in space missions given such a complex role in our moonshot? Why not a more proven company like Lockheed Martin or SpaceX?

Looking at the company’s C-suite and group photos, they don’t seem overly obsessed with DEI, and diversity isn’t even mentioned in their “about us”.

Can’t go back to the moon. Can’t risk discovering what isn’t there that was supposed to have been left there.
