NASA administrator Bill Nelson called for an investigation into a report that Elon Musk has been having secret conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin while dually involved in classified intelligence contracts with the U.S. government.
“I don’t know that that story is true. I think it should be investigated,” Nelson said Fridayat a Semafor conference in Washington. “If the story’s true, that there have been multiple conversations between Elon Musk and the president of Russia, then I think that would be concerning, particularly for NASA, the Department of Defense, for some of the intelligence agencies.”
Ohhhh boy. Don’t fuck with the space program.
The severely under funded space program? Oh yeah, that things super valued.
Lol, everything in the states is under funded with the exception of the military, so it’s a good thing the military doesn’t need to send anything to space.
Edit: Apparently I dropped this /s
They’re underfunded mainly because Congress would rather spend money through SpaceX instead of NADA, because they can make money from SpaceX and other private goons. NASA benefits all Americans, which is just Communism…
