Does NASA really need to "score a win" or is that just click bait?
Yeah, unfortunately.
Theyβre a popularity based branch. You gotta clap to keep them alive.
"Please clap"
TIL NASA is a fairy.
Did you read the article?
Itβs not clickbait, itβs language.
They have an entire section on this and explain it, it isnβt really hyperbole.
Had they not mentioned or explained the language they used then Iβd agree.
NASA depends on funding from the government
And the government accepts cool rocks in trade?
Yeah, they're already stocked on space noodles, unfortunately.
Sadly, yes, if the rocks generate enough interested congresspeople.
The article actually goes into detail on that point.
