NASA’s National Space Council is being discontinued, and the upcoming advisory council meeting in February has been cancelled. The incoming team plans to fill the new council with sycophants who will prioritize personal connections over objective expertise.
The Aerospace Safety Advisory Panel (ASAP) will also be disbanded, while the Users Advisory Group (UAG) will continue, but only as a way to appease industry supporters and politicians. This move is seen as an attempt to rubber-stamp policies and stage photo opportunities with polished backdrops.
The decision marks the beginning of a new era for NASA’s advisory structure, one that prioritizes loyalty over expertise.
