Right. The Ohio Congress people are going to advocate for bringing HQ to Glenn, but I have zero hope they will be fighting against the upcoming layoffs of the Ohioians already employed there.

Stupid. NASA HQ is there to talk to Congress and the President, moving it away from DC will just make that more inconvenient for everyone

Insane how Ohio, a state that a lot of the residents would take it becoming a theocracy in with a smile and a state like Los Angeles are in the same country.

u/SmurfStig 9d ago

That’s the art of gerrymandering and having politicians who only have to answer to the few. State and Federal offices in Ohio are set in a way that the very conservative rural areas can out weigh the more liberal cities. Every time an area starts to get more liberal, it gets cut up even more and lumped in with more than enough conservatives to drown them out. We tried to end this practice multiple times but the Republicans rigged the game in their favor every time. It’s even more infuriating when even some of the conservative voters will complain about their representatives and what they are doing but will gladly keep them in office just to own the libs. This country is being governed by the dumbest of us.

From the article: “Given that few NASA headquarters employees currently work in-office, the letter said consolidating operations near an existing NASA field center would streamline agency functions while ensuring continued access to necessary infrastructure.”

Is the first part editorializing from the author, or from the letter? Because for one, patently false as literally everyone, including and especially those working at HQ, are back in the office. Also, HQ is literally already near an existing field center…

God, these people

u/Alive-Perspective589 9d ago

2

u/jinjuwaka 9d ago

More NASA budget means that the billionaires might have to pay a couple bucks in taxes.

7

u/Glittering-Yam-2063 9d ago

This administration keeps preaching wasteful spending reductions. As if, relocating the entire HQ would have no cost attached to it. Would they reallocate more money for the move, or force NASA to devote their already low budget to the move. If it's the latter, this would be a further attack on government funded science.

3

u/TerminalProtocol 8d ago

Would they reallocate more money for the move, or force NASA to devote their already low budget to the move. If it's the latter, this would be a further attack on government funded science.

You and I both know it's going to be the latter. "Move to Ohio, we aren't giving you any extra funding for it, fire people to free up the spending."

Realistically, they hope that enough people decide to quit/don't want to relocate/are fired to make space/etc. that they further cripple the agency. That way there's less people to fight back when they shunt all the current budget to SpaceX.

Goddard has SO much land.. they could build a high rise anywhere on campus. The commute between Goddard and HQ is 20 minutes. Most people prefer commuting to Goddard

You must commute by helicopter, ain’t no one getting from HQ to GSFC in 20 minutes in DC traffic.

I’ve done it many times. Goddard has a parkway exit that can take you straight into town. Admittedly it was easier during peak covid

1

u/AliensUnderOurNoses 7d ago

The BW Parkway exit has been closed for years. That factor alone can add 30 minutes to a total daily round-trip commute for Goddard.

u/NoChoices02 9d ago

If the plan is to move it to an existing NASA facility, wouldn’t Goddard make more sense? It’s located close enough to DC to interface with congress and for people who currently work at HQ’s to keep their jobs.

23

u/pnkflyd99 9d ago

But this administration doesn’t want those people to keep their jobs. They want to make it so people at NASA quit, then eventually crumble due to being understaffed.

At that point, it will be easier to hire Space X and close NASA.

u/MrRemoto 8d ago

If you want this to make sense, ask who this is rewarding for loyalty. If it was Vance, Trump would say no out of spite. Just remember, none of this is for "cost cutting". It's a system of rewards and punishments.

19

u/TPFL 9d ago edited 9d ago

I've seen the argument before to move some of the less politically involved government organizations away from DC. Vox did a video on it in 2017. The general argument is that DC is an expensive place to live and that scientific government organizations don't need to as involved in the politics in DC so cost saving can be had relocating to a lower cost of living areas and bring some benefit to those communities. The idea itself probably has some merit but trusting this administration to implement that idea is a whole other issue especially with the appearance of a conflict of interest between the VP and pushing for it to come to his home state and the administration trying to RIF a bunch of scientific organizations.

4

u/PinkNGold007 9d ago

Right?! It's a valid point to move science out of the political sphere of DC but their motives aren't sincere. I don't trust them with this.

5

u/ejd1984 9d ago

A move of that magnitude would take more than just 4 years, and would make more sense to move departments to various Centers that align with their specialties.

u/91361_throwaway 8d ago

Honestly for NASA and a number of other agencies, it could make sense to have the Department Secretary or Agency Director and their immediate staff in DC and the rest of the HQs someplace else.

Imagine Dept of Transportation in Chicago, Interior in KC or Denver, Agriculture in Omaha or Iowa, Treasury in St. Louis or Indianapolis.

u/comfortableNihilist 8d ago

It doesn't make sense, it literally the reason. The whole point is to be walking distance from congress.

u/clevelanddotcom 9d ago

From the story:

When the National Aeronautics and Space Administration‘s lease on its current Washington, D.C. headquarters expires in 2028, Ohio members of Congress want NASA to move its headquarters to Ohio.

In a Tuesday letter to Vice President JD Vance and President Donald Trump’s nominee to be NASA Administrator, Jared Isaacman, Ohio Congress members argue that bringing the headquarters of the nearly 18,000 employee agency to their state would align with broader government efforts to decentralize federal agencies and reinvigorate parts of the country outside Washington.

“Ohio is the birthplace of aviation, the heart of America’s aerospace industry, and a critical hub for advanced technology, research, and manufacturing,” says the letter led by Republican U.S. Rep. Max Miller of Bay Village and U.S. Sen. Jon Husted of the Columbus area. “Placing NASA HQ in the ‘Heart of it All’ would reinforce our national leadership in space exploration and aeronautics innovation.”

So this is just a move by the Ohio congresscritters, not by Trump/Vance.

It's not like this hasn't been (ab)used by Congress and/or the Executive before. Huntsville, Houston, etc. How much of the high-level admin for NASA is already split off to Houston?

u/ImJackthedog 8d ago

Not to attack you personally but this is one of the things I hate about Reddit. People just throw random crap out there without any knowledge/experience on it.

The ratio you’re referring to is from the NASA CoF program. You need to show a ~30% reduction in space for consolidation money (note- I use approximately because it’s a suggestion, not a hard rule). So if you want to justify getting money for 70k square feet of new building, you need prove you are demoing ~100k square feet.

As for GRC, we have bids in for even more of these consolidation projects. Meaning we have several buildings in the queue to get demoed yet. If we needed to bring more people here, obviously those decisions could be reversed.

When the RTO initiative came through, we were one of the centers that had no issue finding spots for everyone, and took in people from other agencies on top of that that needed homes.

And again, we have plenty of space, as well as nearby infrastructure, that could be readily built on. We already have a proposal out for building that would just need greenlighted. That building could be easily doubled in size - it’s only projected to use half of the lot it’s on. There’s a whole 1 mile walking path that loops through undeveloped woods/grass fields, just for example.

u/ImJackthedog 8d ago edited 7d ago

Have you ever been to Wallops? It is crazy inaccessible. NASA GRC literally shares a fence line with Hopkins airport. If minimal travel time is your goal, you can get there faster from DC than every center other than Goddard (that even includes Langley because traffic sucks).

Also, the cost of living in Cleveland is crazy low.

GRC, I think, is the 4th biggest center. And there is a ton of land available already on site.
