Nasa has dropped its longstanding public commitment to land the first woman and person of color on the moon, in response to Donald Trump’s directives to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices at federal agencies.

The promise was a central plank of the space agency’s Artemis program, which is scheduled to return humans to the lunar surface in 2027 for the first time since the final Apollo mission in December 1972.

The Artemis landing page of Nasa’s website previously included the words: “Nasa will land the first woman, first person of color, and first international partner astronaut on the Moon using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before.”

The version of the page live on the website on Friday, however, appears with the phrase removed."

I would hope that when deciding on who should go to space the decision is not based on race, religion or gender but the best man or woman for the task.

[thepornman]

The president said no more DEI bull crap in government, he really is the greatest president we have had.

[GRXlinks]

Nothing surprising there president already signed an EO asking Federal agencies to get out of the DEI scene.

Just a pity Trump himself doesn't hire people on merit alone. Almost none of his cabinet has any experience for the positions they are in. They are there because they kiss Trumps ass
