Last week, news emerged that NASA’s largest library at its iconic Goddard Space Flight Center (GFSC) in Maryland was being shut down.
NASA insiders are dismayed at the situation playing out at GSFC, arguing that the library was an extremely important resource that’s being unjustifiably wiped out.
Officials have cried foul, arguing that plans for shutting the GSFC library existed long before Trump took office last year.
“As one who has personally saved and restored NASA data, there is much more to this than you are being told,” Wingo tweeted.
