White House budget seeks to end SLS, Orion, and Lunar Gateway programs
I wonder if the European space agency in other countries will take up the slack. I also wonder if NASA employees will move to these countries.
It’d require an Apollo-level investment and I think Europe is gonna be focused on more prosaic concerns.
I don’t think a brain drain is avoidable and I don’t think it’s undesirable for the current administration. Keeping a strong civil servant workforce doesn’t seem like a priority.
Personally I am almost certain that we're going to see a reverse operation paperclip soon, but it'll probably be China running it rather than the EU.
I could be talked into Europe. Not so sure about Beijing. Folks that might be willing to go to china (at least in my neck of the woods) get weeded out pretty quick.
Huh. Turns out I was wrong: it is the EU.
