  • NASA, Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Blue Origin are just a few of the organizations that have begun to limit business travel and reschedule events.
  • The potential slowdown would hit more than development of hardware, such as spacecraft, with software engineers possibly impacted by a limited ability to work from home if required.
  • NASA’s Marshall center in Huntsville, Alabama reported on Friday that an employee tested posted for coronavirus, the second agency center to do so.
  • SpaceX appears to be largely moving forward with normal operations, although CEO Elon Musk reportedly wrote in an email to employees that if they’re “feeling ill” that “it’s always better to stay home and take care of yourself.”
