I can understand the impulse for a moratorium. I am not at all sure that a blanket moratorium as broad as this one will produce any higher degree of safety than a more targeted kind of thing.

But just because you have the right to do it does not mean it is the right thing to do.

I would urge you to have conversations with whatever 'elves' within the administration you deal with, over at OMB, because I think that's where the decision was made.

I think the implications for this are very serious. NASA, I think, is making a mistake.
