NASA, like other companies, has parted ways with its employees. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has laid off 530 employees, which corresponds to 8% of its workforce.

Furthermore, NASA has also parted ways with its employees, much like companies such as Amazon, Meta, and Google. In addition to the 530 employees, 40 contractors will also be let go. It was stated that the layoffs at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory will affect both technical and support areas.

JPL is involved in the missions of NASA's Curiosity and Perseverance rovers on Mars. For this reason, the layoffs are expected to be felt in these projects and future ones.

The Perseverance rover is collecting samples from the surface of Mars, and the goal is to bring them to Earth through this Mars project. Tests conducted by an independent review board found that if this project were to begin by 2030, it would cost between 8 billion and 11 billion dollars.
