Elon Musk's DODGY firing spree cuts 10% of NASA and NSF staff putting future of American science at stake

Elon Musk's recent decision to lay off approximately 10% of the staff at NASA and the National Science Foundation (NSF) has raised significant concerns about the future of American scientific research. The article from MSN highlights that these cuts, part of Musk's broader cost-cutting measures, could jeopardize critical research projects and the operational capabilities of these institutions. NASA, already facing budget constraints, might see delays in key missions like the Artemis program aimed at returning humans to the Moon. Similarly, the NSF, which funds a wide array of scientific research across the U.S., might struggle to support ongoing and future projects, potentially stifling innovation and scientific advancement. Critics argue that these layoffs reflect a lack of understanding of the importance of sustained investment in science, potentially undermining America's position in global scientific leadership.
