"No mention of that science and exploration stuff," NASA Watch founder Keith Cowing, a former scientist at the agency who now closely follows its internal and external politics, wrote in a blog post.
There are signs that Trump's intentions behind the order were at least partially related to labor concerns, rather than spycraft. The order also added NASA to the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute (FSLMRS), excluding it from collective bargaining representation.
The news that NASA will now be a spy agency was seemingly overshadowed in the media by the president's elimination of union rights for thousands of federal employees " mere days before Labor Day " despite multiple lawsuits challenging the change."

World, remember when Hitler took over country after country, murdering as he went? And then, when it looked like he had triumphed, his inner demons had him attack Stalin's Russia? Some men are monsters...and now that Trump has taken over the United States and subverted its Constitution, do you think he will stop inside our borders? As nations fall to their inner fascist core, and they discover that Americans like Miller and Bannon have been creating powerful brownshirt armies...

NASA has always been a spy agency. They are now saying the quiet part out loud.
