Haven't heard of this specifically, but I know a bunch of folks out at Stennis, NASA, NOAA and Navy. My estimate is 40/60 split vax/no-vax. Don't see the numbers shifting more than 50/50 at best.

Good gravy...some people will believe anything.

Don't you think there'd be a name with this stand?

Bueller?

I know some of our posters work there. Any truth to this?
*raises hand.

Subcontractor / vendor / engineering consultant. I work with a team on the Artemis program, testing some "items" in a vacuum chamber to simulate space conditions. We had a meeting today with multiple engineers and nary a peep. One of the contractors I work with talked about how SAIC lost their support contract, but are protesting it. Other than that, nothing.

last time I worked there.

Where did you work? My Dad worked for Autonetics in the 1960s and helped design the guidance systems used in the Mercury and Apollo missions. He worked closely with JPL in Downy and also did some things with Rocketdyne.

The only around this is for people to come together. I have little faith in that happening. Because the government has done a masterful job at dividing us..

NASA already said they don't care about exploring space, but only in their new "Mission Equity" and breaking down barriers!

My issue is I can't find a place to work now since I refuse to get vaccinated. I'm an aerospace engineer.

If anyone knows a place hiring aerospace engineers that isn't forcing vaccinations I would be glad to know

Can't you just take the tests? Even if you had to come out of pocket, say, $5K for the year, wouldn't that STILL be superior to just being unemployed?

Wouldn't a lot of Aerospace industry work fall under federal contract work? They don't have the option to get tested. Vaccine only.

If you have a job that takes a reasonable level of competence, experience, and you must be certified for and you do not want this shot, call their bluff.

Get yourself to DC for the Air Force's Air, Space & Cyber Conference on Sept. 20-22 at the Gaylord National. Aerospace and defense contractors galore. The registration for the Exhibit Hall is $0.00. Show up, walk the exhibit floor and visit with people in the booths. Tell them what you're looking for. You can usually make connections at these events pretty easily.

Firing all these folks would essentially kill the Artemis mission
No. No. Not a problem.
Biden has that figured out.

He's transferring mission command to the military under Gen Milley.
Milley has already announced the first unmanned mission is a waste of money. Instead, he plans to man the first mission with an expanded crew of 13 Marines. Though there is only room and equipment onboard for four astronauts, he assures Marines can share.

In a statement, Milley said, "They're Marines. They'll figure it out. They'll be just fine. Yes, there are still a few challenges to work out in terms of the synchronized retrograde from lunar orbit, but our main focus at this stage is over-painting all previously white surfaces on the spacecraft, and identifying best location for placement of the mission's new BLM logo."
