A significant restructuring effort is underway at the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). According to a spokesperson, approximately 20% of the agency’s workforce, amounting to around 3,870 individuals, are expected to leave. The number may fluctuate over the coming days and weeks.
Despite this exodus, NASA estimates that roughly 14,000 employees will remain at the agency. This restructuring is part of a broader effort to modernize and streamline its operations.
