This weeks shenanigans: this is an expired 4 person raft that some dingleberry has caulked shut making it inoperable. Derp. Mitch rates it's heaviness as a 5/10. More shit for the garbage. #geeksahoy #liveaboard #sleeplessinseattle #hangerone #dingleberry #thisshitisheavy

Triumvirate Gets Landmark Garage

The GSA has approved NASA’s deal with Google subsidiary Planetary Ventures LLC, to reskin Hanger One and assume control of air operations at Moffett Field.

I guess this means Larry, Sergei, and Eric get their garage. At least, us plebes still have our landmark to look at.

Hanger One Still On the Chopping Block

NASA’s inspector general is still gunning for Hanger One. Essentially, the IG and NASA HQ are upset with Ames Research Center’s leasing of property to private groups such as Singularity University, Airship Ventures, and the Google Triumvirate, and insist that future leases correspond to “current or future mission[s]“, and to sell any properties that can’t be leased. I believe the IG is referring in particular to the airfield itself.

Not having any particular knowledge beyond what I find in the local papers, but that seems a bit strange. I thought NASA Ames was one of the centers that was researching heavy lift airships for cargo transport to remote areas, and that Hanger One was intended to be used for these airships.
