Jared Isaacman cannot be NASA’s next chief.
Traffic lights reported on Saturday . Excoke orbit missions on the ground.
The White House confirms the news soon after.
“NAS manager helps bring man in space and impose President Trump’s bold mission to plant the planet’s American flag Mars,“The White House spokesman Liz Huston said to a wonderful statement on Saturday.
“It is important that NASA’s next leader is the complete alignment of America in America Trump, and a substitute to be sent directly President Trump Soon, “he added.
The action comes as something surprise. Trump announced his choice Jared Isaacman In December, before the president’s inauguration, and the nominee seemed to be confirmed by Congress As soon as the next week.
Hustson’s statement did not provide a result of the 42-year-old Isaacman, the builder and CEO of the Shifting-Processing-Processing Company Shift4. But it meant that the White House did not think that Isaacman was completely on the trumpet and priorities of wages.
We got a detailed view of priorities on Friday afternoon (May 30), when the White House released a deep version of the 2026 fiscal year.
Documents suggest a $ 6 billion budget cuts for the agency, from $ 24.8 billion to $ 18.8 billion, with funds for science science in 47%.
Numbers first revealed about a month ago, when the White House released the alleged version “Budget barrier“Request. But newly released documents puts the consequences of cuts, they should be produced by Congress.
NASA workers can be reduced to a third, for example, and many agency science missions – including Juoo Jupiter Orbiter, New Horizons Pluto probe and a number of other spacecraft currently gathers data in deep space – canceled.
Isaacman’s nomination was pulled a day after Elon Musk’s 130-day appointment as a “special government employee” ENDS.
Musk leads the cost – and prompt the government’s government department while serving in that task. During a press conference at the White House on Friday (May 30), Musk says he will remain a counselor with, and President Trump’s friend even though the official situation is lost.
It is worth it quirk in time, given that Isaacman made the business of Spacex and Musk. But doing so not to mean that Isaacman has a good condition of the spacex like NASA chief.
Many democratic senators asked Isaacman about the possible concerns of conflict with his recognition of his commercial, science, and transportation of April. Isaacman repeatedly emphasized that he was not tightly in the musk and, if the agency’s chief pristents, he would only act in the best interests of NASA and the country. The committee voted on April 30 to advancing his nomination throughout the Senate for confirmation.
