NASA SMD PAO's Dysfunctional Telecons
NASA Holds Teleconference to Discuss Science Campaign of Curiosity Mars Rover
Keith’s note: NASA SMD PAO’s Dwayne Brown continues to refuse to respond to media inquiries from last month’s Mars 2020 media opportunity – despite overtly soliciting such inquiries. Let’s see who Dwayne ignores during this briefing – since he’s NASA PAO – and I am not. As such I am not going to bother to dial in since it is a waste of my time. More opportunity for others to ask questions. I have had multiple interactions with NASA PAO on this non-response by Dwayne and their lack of response is a de facto endorsement of Dwayne’s behavior. So it goes. I’ll live tweet the event – with commentary.
– SMD Wants To Talk About MSL Science (Or Lack Thereof), earllier post
– Results of Planetary Science Mission Review: MSL = Yawn, earllier post
– NASA PAO Promises To Answer Questions and Then Does Not, earllier post
I can’t speak for everyone else but I’m sick and tired of hearing how NASA PAO’s continually have a poor record of job performance. I think its time, we the citizens who support NASA, start firing off some letters/emails to NASA management urging better communication and responses.
Keith: Are you talking about that question on whether or not the mission is actually searching for life?
