Wildfires Temporarily Ground NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Los Angeles has been shuttered amid raging wildfires, as the Eaton Fire spreads across Southern California. The facility, crucial for robotic spacecraft missions, is expected to remain closed until at least January 13, 2025. Despite the evacuations, the Deep Space Network operations have been seamlessly transitioned to backup locations, ensuring that space missions continue without a hitch. This event underscores the urgent need for robust disaster preparedness and highlights climate change's tangible threat to vital infrastructure.
