It's not a hoax, and there has been discussion on sci.space.  Maybe the
propagation to your site is slow.  Or maybe it appeared first on sci.astro
and took a while to propagate to the other newsgroups.  And I'm not aware
of any pro who was caught with their pants down.

Although many university astronomers have research grants from NASA, please
understand that NASA is not responsible for all of U.S. astronomy!  In fact,
no NASA-salaried scientists were involved in any of this.  I've already
posted information, and I don't consider myself all that close to the heart
of NASA.  I'm a state-salaried university employee with some NASA research
money.  Why the instinctive reliance on NASA for information?
