Since President Trump appointed me in this temporary role, I have been committed to serving his administration, NASA’s workforce, and the task we do every day. I want to confirm that the commitment will not change with our progress together. I will continue to provide a fixed leadership during this period of transition until a new leader is installed.
Below is a quick look at some progress on our mission last week: • NASA’s IXPE first provided astronomical physics-seizure of attracting X-rays of burning magnets. This teacher gives us a new insight into the most magnetic things in the universe and helps to improve our understanding of how extremist environments behave.
- The fastest protester of X-59 continues to make progress. It is now in weight and balance-the last major step before the low-speed taxi test. The X-59 team, designed to ensure the center of gravity matching the plane structure model and flying controls.
- NASA has supported the Cessna Caravan Test, which was tried a distance tried in Montana to evaluate the automatic taxi and safe amphitheater. The test, and cooperation by Boeing, FAA, and the European Union Safety Agency, AI and ATM towards a safer future commercial airline system.
- The Roman Nancy Grace telescope removed a major milestone: pass the vibration test successfully for its basic assembly. This step is crucial to verify that it can stand up to the launch environment, and it brings us closer to one step by opening new discoveries about dark energy and planets outside our solar system, and the structure of the universe.
- On board the International Space Station, the Expedition 73 crew kept a fixed rhythm of scientific progress – from the upgrade of computers and biomedical devices to the processing of bacteria samples with 3D imaging and analyzing the station’s weather conditions to provide a technical demonstration to protect the health of the pioneer of bedding.
We look forward to the future, we are taking steps to simplify operations and ensure that we are compatible with the priorities of the task. Starting next week, we will provide voluntary separation tools, including the new deferred resignation program (DRP) to help manage the workforce transitions carefully and transparently.
As is always the case, we are still focusing on maintaining technical excellence and the ability to request our mission.
Finally, I want to be clear: We focus on our mission. We are here to implement the president’s vision for the future of space – with professionalism, purpose and unity. We will continue to work with our international and industry partners to ensure that these goals are achieved, and to stay on the ground in the mission and teamwork it requires to achieve this.
Thank you for everything you continue.
Embrace the challenge,
Janet
