Fascinating…I had no idea NASA contributed to so many important innovations. Thanks for the info.

Also improved ball point pens, cordless small vacuums, freeze-dried food, vacuum sealing for foods.....

Privatizing a government agency for profit. Sounds familiar.

I admit, I am ambivalent when it comes to NASA. NASA always had and still has its dark sides even though I agree to the good sites too. As I can't see the full picture I'm a bit hesitant to only praise the NASA.

I hear you. However it is emblematic of undermining science in general

Yes, of course !! I totally agree !
