NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman lays out the revised Artemis strategy 🚀 • Standardize the launch vehicle • Launch again in 2027 to rebuild muscle memory • Test lander operations in low Earth orbit • Go for a full Moon landing in 2028 “I say it often that the difference between winning and losing will be measured in months, not years. And that should create a sense of urgency" The goal is to beat China to the lunar surface and have American infrastructure waiting when our astronauts arrive “Gateway was an interesting concept in 2017 when we weren’t faced with a Chinese rival that could potentially beat us back to the Moon" (via NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman)

Jared Isaacman breaks silence on his NASA nomination being withdrawn by President Trump "I got a call ... it was a real bummer ... but the president needs to have that person he counts on to fill the agenda" "I don't think the timing was a coincidence that there were other changes going on the same day ... I was a good visible target" "The news talks about the democratic donations were the cause... that was not a new development. You can Google them. They're all public" "I don't fault the president at all. I fully support him ... I don't know the history on what the trigger was" When asked directly if it was tied to Elon Musk "People can draw their own conclusions ... What people seem to be thinking on this seems to check out to me" (via The All-In Podcast)
