Blue Ghost environmental testing was completed at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in mid-October 2024.
The author and a group from Caltech were able to get car passes from JPL for official guest viewing areas at Edwards Air Force Base.
Laurie Leshin wrote that JPL had been working through multiple workforce scenarios to address the dynamic funding environment and had partnered with colleagues at NASA and elsewhere to minimize adverse effects on JPL’s capabilities and team.
In February, JPL laid off 530 employees, equal to 8% of its workforce at the time, because of uncertainties about its fiscal year 2024 budget, particularly spending on the Mars Sample Return program led by the lab.
The November layoffs at JPL are intended to meet the available funding for fiscal year 2025 and will be spread across JPL from technical to support staff.
A 2024-11-12 memo from JPL director Laurie Leshin indicates that about 325 employees will be laid off 2024-11-11 to adjust to projected spending levels for fiscal year 2025.
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory will lay off about 5% of its staff 2024-11-11.
The JPL revised MSR approach incorporates capabilities from the Artemis lunar exploration effort to perform the final leg from cislunar space back to Earth.
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory revised the overall MSR architecture to return samples to cislunar space in 2035 and to reduce the projected $11,000,000,000 cost by half.
The JPL revised architecture reduces the Sample Retrieval Lander and Mars Ascent Vehicle size by shrinking the lander weight from up to 3,450 kg to no more than 1,350 kg.
