    The daughter of one of the stranded astronauts appeared to let
    slip that she blames NASA 'incompetence' for her father's
    space fiasco.

    In a newly-unearthed post from January, Daryn Wilmore, 19,
    seemed to let her frustration out in response to a comment
    on one of her TikTok videos.

    Someone commented, 'I'm so sorry NASA is actually evil...'
    to which Daryn replied: 'Less evil more... incompetent.'

    In another video posted in February, Daryn suggested that
    'politics' and 'negligence' played a role in her dad's
    delayed return.

    . . .

    The words of someone literally right in the
    middle of all this ........

    NASA is not technically incompetent, but
    politically/institutionally incompetent.
    It's been too long the toy of various
    political forces/pols. CAN'T make good,
    real-world, decisions all the time.

    However their TECH call to NOT risk returning
    her dad on the DEI Boeing craft ... that was
    a good decision. Yea, it DID make it back ...
    but that was just statistics, roll of the dice,
    not any kind of sure thing at all. The thing
    was all fucked up - only launched because it
    was "Not Trump/Musk".

    NASA has always been political.
    Many people don't realize that the space program of the 60's and early 70's served a dual purpose.

    1. To land on the moon.
    2. As a test bed for the military.

    You forgot "as a PORK-BARREL" ... esp for LBJ :-)

    Barely 10 miles south of KSC is Patrick AFB - and
    they have always been heavily involved with NASA
    and "black" projects - the original "Space Wing"
    of the USAF.

    yes.
    This has been going on since the beginning of time.
    Politicians who represent districts with military bases always defend the pork.
