NASA centers announce buyout plans

Five NASA centers announced plans Friday to offer buyouts to employees in an effort to cut hundreds of jobs. The Hampton Roads (Va.) Daily Press reported Saturday that NASA's Langley Research Center is offering buyouts for up to 300 employees who choose to leave the agency over the next month. About half of Langley's 2,250 civil servants will be eligible for the buyouts, the size of which was not disclosed. Four other NASA centers — Ames, Dryden, Glenn, and Marshall — are also offering similar buyouts, although no details about those programs were released. A Langley spokesman said the buyout was part of NASA's overall transformation plan, reorienting the agency to focus on the Vision for Space Exploration.
