I hate to sound like I’m agreeing with Trump on .. pretty much anything. But if we can hand NOAA’s tasks to NOAA, the airforce’s tasks to the airforce, commercialize “routine” orbital access - and free NASA up for actual exploration .. I don’t think I’d be opposed to that. Just as long as we’re actually enabling them (and funding them) to do so, and not actually downsizing any of the above.
