Deep Space Gateway Event Ends But No One Knows It Ever Happened

Baffling how only 3 people tweeted about #DeepSpace2018 out of an audience of hundreds. Either attendees don't care or were discouraged by @NASA & @LPItoday. Not a good sign when #NASA budgets will be flat for a long time. If this is so cool why not tell all Americans about it? pic.twitter.com/zZZznzyxXc

On last day of #deepspace2018 @LPItoday fixed their webpage to say that news media are welcome but they can't cover morning sessions - just afternoon sessions 28 Feb - 1 Mar. Except there's no afternoon session today for anyone to attend. Someone revised the webpage in a hurry — NASA Watch (@NASAWatch) March 1, 2018

Oh yes: @NASA HQ PAO says the reason #Deepspace2018 was not webcast by @LPItoday is because it had several sessions (too complex for an agency with operational interstellar spacecraft) and that the meeting was not "decisional". #NASA only webcasts "decisional" things, apparently. — NASA Watch (@NASAWatch) March 1, 2018
