Annual Call for Nominations for NASA science advisory subcommittees, NASA SMD
“NASA invites nominations for service on NASA science advisory subcommittees of the NASA Advisory Council. U.S. citizens may nominate individuals and also submit self-nominations for consideration as potential members of NASA’s science advisory subcommittees. NASA’s science advisory subcommittees have member vacancies from time to time throughout the year, and NASA will consider nominations and self-nominations to fill such intermittent vacancies. NASA is committed to selecting members to serve on its science advisory subcommittees based on their individual expertise, knowledge, experience, and current/past contributions to the relevant subject area.”

    I nominate Frank Wolf. Let’s throw him in amongst the sheep and see if they gang up him. At worst, he might just learn a little bit about how space and science people think, and why things happen the way they do at NASA. For a change, it would put him in a situation where he is on the same level as everyone else in the room, instead of either being in absolute command or sitting down at the table already knowing that he has the support/votes for whatever he wants in his pocket. When elected Congress people are not consistently acting in the interests of their constituents and the population as a whole, there are only two options — educate them or get rid of them.

    So they just have an open casting call? No wonder we have started to slack some in space. If they pick their own advisers, they’ll always be satisfied with what they’re doing at the time.
