Makenzie Lystrup will leave her position as the Director of NASA's Goddard Center after two years, amidst significant discontent within the agency. The announcement coincides with the release of the Voyager Declaration, where 287 employees voiced concerns over the current direction of NASA under the administration of interim administrator Sean Duffy. Lystrup's departure follows that of Laurie Leshin from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, contributing to a growing atmosphere of uncertainty and concern among staff regarding potential staffing cuts and the agency's future.
"The last six months have seen rapid and wasteful changes which have undermined our mission and caused catastrophic impacts on NASA's workforce."
"More than two years after swearing into the agency on a copy of Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot, Lystrup is set to depart on August 1."
