Is there a similar ostensible classified reason why OCO-2 and OCO-3 are requested to shut down operations? 700+ M invested in space based observatories with ~ 15M yearly operating cost. Just doesn't make sense to disable perfectly working observatories to save less than ~75M in a timespan of 5 years while losing a 700+M investment.


The reason is observatories are woke, apparently


Machines and instruments can be woke? How does one establish if a machine is woke?

What would be the most woke thing for machines to do? To protest and demand machine rights?
