"NASA does not plan to rename its new $10 billion technological marvel, the James Webb Space Telescope, despite concerns that it's named after former NASA administrator James Webb, who went along with government discrimination against gay and lesbian employees in the 1950s and 1960s."

Specifically NOT cancelled, bv.

Seems like "didn't fight the government on behalf of gays and lesbians in the 1950s" is a painfully low bar for cancellation. Were there ANY astronomers fighting the government over the GLBT movement in the 50s?

True.

If the story gets more traction, you may see twitter armchair astronomers get up in arms, and then real astronomers start following suit to not look like a bad guy, then they end up changing it. Seems like an idiot snowball waiting to happen.
