"NASA is currently closed due to an interruption of government funding," said the space agency on one of its websites.
Since December 22, the government of United States has partially halted due to a budget impbade over the construction of a wall at the border between the country and Mexico
It is already the biggest time to stop the history of the United States, with at least 80 government sites affected – off-air or feature-rich scaled down.
Worse still, contract workers hired by NASA are without pay, which should have been the last day of January.
With the government stalled, no money has been released so that unionized workers at the Kennedy Space Center can be paid.
With so many employees at home, one of the impacts of the closure will be the postponement of NASA initiatives such as the capsule test. Orion (who will bring humans back to the moon), the development of the SLS rocket (which will be the most powerful of the space agency for future missions on Mars) and the launch of the agency's commercial program with SpaceX, which should soon be the first unmanned test flight with the space ship Crew Dragon to bring astronauts to the International Space Station (ending NASA's partnership with Russia in this regard), reports "Channel Tech".
