As early as. We're already over a fiscal quarter late. It will be important to see what happens to the increasing number of calls that have already passed original NOI/step 1 deadlines or had imminent due dates.

“I made the decision to pause ROSES,” Fox said, citing uncertainty about funding levels in the fiscal year 2026 budget proposal. “My intention is to get that through final approval and out hopefully as early as the end of this month.” @nasaaarr.bsky.social

It's not too little, too late. It's bullshit buck passing. NASA's not going to give them the direction they claim to need.

USRA has circulated this statement regarding their unilateral* decision to remove from their website planetary science community abstracts, studied, and reports they hosted that included DEI content.

Too little, too late in my view.

*i.e., not at the direction of NASA
