  • President-elect Donald Trump has picked private astronaut and billionaire tech entrepreneur Jared Isaacman as the administrator of NASA.

The article from Flying Magazine discusses the appointment of Jared Isaacman, a billionaire and private astronaut, as the new head of NASA by former President Donald Trump. Isaacman, known for his role in the Inspiration4 mission, which was the first all-civilian spaceflight, has been chosen to lead NASA at a time when the agency is focusing on commercial partnerships and space exploration. His selection reflects Trump's push towards privatization in space travel, aiming to reduce government spending and encourage private sector innovation. Isaacman's background in finance and his experience with SpaceX are highlighted as key qualifications for his new role, where he is expected to foster collaborations with private companies to advance NASA's goals, including missions to the Moon and Mars. However, the article also notes concerns about the implications of such a significant shift towards privatization in space exploration.
