I hope you can get some more information that you can share, Astro! I really wouldn't be surprised if it was some kind of space denier who was threatening to go all Jared Loughner on NASA. Turns out that it was actually someone calling them in relation to a false active shooter alarm that was triggered at the main headquarters in DC earlier today. They called KSC Headquarters thinking that was the headquarters where the alarm was, but it wasn't. https://twitter.com/_/status/1436438762574188547 When I was at GRC, NASA developed an Agency wide alert system and decided to test it without telling anybody that it was a test. We all received e-mail and phone messages that there was an active shooter on the lab. That was a fun day. I see little has changed. The more I know, the crazier I appear to be.

I think the email today said they were going to test it on Tuesday. I'm sure that will be fun. |
