NASA opens vacancy "planetary security officer"

The multi-year Hollywood idea of ​​finding a hero to protect civilization has found its embodiment in the United States. So, on the NASA website is open real vacancy "Planetary Defense Officer". As described in the description, the person who takes such a post will deal with the issues of "preventing organic and biological pollution during space research."

From the annotation to the vacancy:

NASA maintains a planetary protection policy applicable to flights into space, as a result of which terrestrial organisms and organic components can be intentionally or unintentionally transferred to planets or other bodies of the solar system.

It is reported that after long-distance flights, spacecraft can bring samples to Earth capable of causing this or that pollution of the biosphere on our planet.

The planetary security officer is invited to conclude a contract for 3 of the year with the possibility of extending it for another 2 of the year. The level of monetary allowance was also announced - from 124 to 187 thousand dollars a year.

So, Diana, it was already in history!

From the end of WWII there was a great joke!

At the Tehran Conference, Rooselt and Cherchel were tired of the fact that Stalin constantly puts pressure on them and only his proposals pass. Well, they decided over Stalin to "show off".
In the morning before the next meeting, Churchill told Stalin:
- Today I had a dream that I became Sovereign of the world!
“And I dreamed,” said Roosevelt, “that I became Lord of the universe! What did you dream about, Marshal Stalin?
“But I dreamed,” Stalin answered leisurely, “that I have neither approved you, Mr. Churchill, nor you, Mr. Roosevelt.

No need to joke. There is so much rubbish in space, so much garbage that there is already a real danger to space tourism. And so I want to walk along the dusty paths on Mars, plant a tree, build a cottage there ... But space junk interferes. It’s time to create the Planetary Public Space Debris Municipal Service. Only do not accept Sukashvili, everything will be stolen, work will be disorganized and run away.

I'm not joking about space pollution, but

"Planetary Defense Officer"

How does that sound. For a large-scale country and large-scale posts.

[Tusv]

It is reported that after long-distance flights, spacecraft can bring samples to Earth capable of causing this or that pollution of the biosphere on our planet.

The idea is certainly correct. But what about the following quote

NASA reports that the applicant must have engineering and technical skills, a tendency towards a diplomatic resolution of issues, and work experience in government agencies.

I understand that a planetary security officer should be able to tell viruses: "Do not infect us, otherwise I have a higher technical education and worked in the State Department"

[voyaka uh]

He must have time to send specialists to isolate and deactivate these viruses.
before they spread on Earth.

[voyaka uh]

It’s good to know that the term “officer” isn’t for Americans
always refers to the military. For example, on any major
there is a "managing officer" at the construction site. He commands the arrival / work /
the departure of all contractors. Strictly on the clock they are taken / chased / fined.
Everyone implicitly obeys him. But he is not military.

Because it’s bullshit. All interplanetary and space missions are carried out with the condition that our viruses and bacteria do not get there and strangers to us. All this was organized from the first flights. Just no one shouted about such a position, as this was implied by itself. So the people are joking over the next mattress deflate.

[kasatky]

Allow me to inquire. If the “condition for not getting viruses is met,” then who provides this and is responsible if there is no person to whom it is charged in accordance with his position and on the basis of (for example) a qualification guide?
Maybe they have a mattress upright, and maybe we have Russian maybe?

Post AS he (officer), should identify an unknown extraterrestrial virus?
How he (officer), should localize / isolate / deactivate people, the terrain equipment, in hindsight, after identifying a virus of extraterrestrial origin (or do you think that the virus is an uncle in a clown costume that is immediately visible?)?
This is not done by the offender ... And even more so, not one person. And even more so, no one needs to be sent separately. Any goods and means that had direct contact with extraterrestrial conditions must be quarantined, for that matter. And not only for safety reasons for the Earth, but at least for scientific value since contact with the earth's environment can (and certainly) change the structure and composition of the samples.
You have to be an IDIOM so you don’t understand this. because even soil samples during surveys are stored and delivered to the laboratory in closed crucibles for the same reasons.

On Salute-5, mold suddenly appeared. Scored the whole station. Moreover, such mold on Earth did not exist before. Where did it come from? Not that the Earth was brought into the station and mutated under the influence of weightlessness and radiation, or maybe some micrometeorite brought from deep space? And how will such mold behave when it hits the ground - who knows?
Another point. We are sending the station to Mars. And on the landing module there were terrestrial bacteria, viruses, fungi. How will they behave there - safely rest or begin to mutate and multiply? What will this lead to for Mars?
Here, to prevent such problems, this position was obviously created.

[Baloo]

On Salute-5, mold suddenly appeared. Scored the whole station. Moreover, such mold on Earth did not exist before.
Mold was brought on the ground. We handed over after the construction of the operblok-long sown mold. They did it.
Every second, microbes, viruses, molds and other microorganisms enter the body through the mouth and lungs, the variety of which cannot be described ... The body copes with some, some devour each other without harming their health, some produce vitamins, etc.
Talking about the drift from space of unknown microorganisms is too early, but is being discussed.
Large space objects, a collision with which is fraught, pose a greater threat.

[AUL]

I agree with you that these threats at the moment are mostly hypothetical. But not entirely absurd. As long as humanity does not crawl beyond the limits of the lunar orbit, the danger of a biological threat is small. But when we get, for example, to Mars, the probability of dragging some kind of infection from there to Earth is already clearly non-zero. Yes, and to Mars from Earth, too. So it’s better to worry in advance, and not wait until the cock pecks.

You can joke about the "navel of the earth" for a long time. but if pathogens are brought into one of the planets of the solar system into the Earth’s biosphere, nobody will see it. There is no immunity on them, and as a result of a pandemic, the world's population will either decrease much or even cease to exist. And to you all hehanki and khahanki.

before introducing all kinds of crazy posts, one would first learn how to return spacecraft from other planets. Something I do not remember in NASA's plans for such an item. And even if there is, then what are the problems? Organize a “quarantine” in near-Earth (preferably near-moon) orbit and inspect the returned modules of comic devices there even before the second advent. For this, ordinary microbiologists with standard astronaut training are sufficient. And do not confuse dear colleagues with biological pollution (by the way, the probability of bio-pollution of the same Mars is now much more relevant) with space debris. This term refers to residues technogenic human activities in outer space (usually near Earth itself), and not biological

It turns out so simple. It turns out to organize quarantine in the orbit of the moon. That's all. Okay, there is staff. But will this staff (medical astronauts) not consist of "planetary security officers" ???
In fact, it’s easiest to just find fault with a post. rather than looking at the core of the problem

In Soviet literature, the word pandemic did not occur. Used the word epidemic. Protect your language from newfangled words, while in Russian these words have synonyms.

Do you have that Friday started? What bacteria and flights to the moon?

Here is the most powerful economic crisis in history on the nose. All America is stocked with seeds, vitamins, small rounds 5.56, 9 mm parabellum. It is stocked up by products of long storage. Looks for places to live away from urban areas. Learns to shoot archery and sew home clothes.

Do not teach me the Russian language. If you do not know this word, this does not mean that this word did not occur in Soviet literature.

Pandemic in Greek - all the people. This is an epidemic characterized by the spread of an infectious disease throughout the country, the territory of neighboring states, and sometimes many countries of the world (for example, cholera, flu). Usually, a pandemic means a disease that has taken on a massive epidemic, affecting a significant part of the entire population. the most famous pandemics in the world - the famous "Spaniard" of the beginning of the 20th century, Asian and Hong Kong flu of the 50s and 60s. so this is not a newfangled word and it does not clog the Russian language but speaks of the nature of the disease.

Apparently you read the answers diagonally, without thinking about the meaning. Read my answer with the moon again. And to whom this answer was given to what proposal.
It is impossible to exclude the introduction of pathogens to the Earth. And I see no reason for ridicule if the Americans decided to begin the formation of such a service now. But they don’t act according to our principle - "go hunting - feed the dogs"

You know, you can call at least a local disease. But if the disease spans dozens of countries and hundreds of millions of people, if not billions, then this is a pandemic. And let's not point out if that's enough. Everyone uses the term that he considers necessary. Do not like a pandemic - use an epidemic, no one forbids you to do this
