Isaacman's bold plan for NASA: Nuclear ships, seven-crew Dragons, Artemis

a year ago

Jared Isaacman's NASA administrator nomination was abruptly withdrawn after a phone call from Trump's Office of Personnel Management.
The withdrawal was politically motivated, linked to Elon Musk's exit from the White House and tensions between Trump and Musk.
Isaacman had undergone six months of vetting and was close to Senate confirmation before the nomination was pulled.
He expressed disappointment, citing his readiness to implement a strong plan for NASA.
Isaacman identified NASA's bureaucratic structure as a major obstacle, with excessive layers of management hindering decision-making and ownership culture.
