> Correction 17 December: An earlier version of this story incorrectly said Mr Isaacman had been confirmed by the Senate when at that point his nomination had only passed a procedural vote.

Worth noting that Isaacman's Project Athena plan is similar to the rest of what's happened: the utter destruction of government capability, replacing it with private industry. https://futurism.com/space/leaked-plan-nasa-project-athena

Personally I find NASA's SLS/Artemis to be a disgrace, but it seems Congressionally mandated alas.
