NASA’s charter clearly states the agency should study planet Earth, however.

    Does he not realize that Earth is in space?

    We were this close to getting Jared Isaacman… instead, we get this fellow :(

      Not that the current situation is any better, but I find it extremely weird that everyone was cheering for a billionaire that sees space exploration as his hobby to be NASA admin.

        I think the key qualification is, Isaacman wouldn’t have been trying to destroy NASA.

          I know that, but a lot of people were cheering a lot louder than if they had cheered for someone who’s best qualification is that he won’t destroy NASA.

            The tech bros liked him because he’s a tech bro. Reasonable people thought he was the best we could hope for under the circumstances.

      Why? He’s one of the best journalists on NASA/spaceflight topics.
