I hate when I make the noob mistake of getting the timezone wrong and showing up an hour late like what I did today

There's plenty of contractors working on space technology that would hire someone without citizenship, I'm sure.
Strictly speaking for American contractors, I'm 99% sure that is not true. If you have any contract with the government for space stuff, all of your workers have to be citizens. I'm not even sure they'd let a permanent resident work there because of ITAR.
Wish there were opportunities for non-European & non-American people to work in these inspiring and endeavoring organizations
Do we need an article about the trucking company that brought the telescope to the launch pad as well? Surely all freight carriers are due recognition? This headline makes it sounds like SpaceX is more that a freight carrier here, undoubtedly for clicks. Being a freight carrier to space is indeed very cool, and exciting, but they didn’t make the telescope.

I came across this the other day, it's pretty elegant and basically solves the problem. Comes in handy when you have eg a call with people in >2 timezones. https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
It's surprising how much ads all these tools show though.

Lol. Not even. What about Musk. He is not born in US

yeah, sorry, i won't be visiting some website just to do timezone conversions. i'll just double check my work next time. to me, that's like the people that need to use GPS navigation to go to the same location they've been to more than once.

Very true, although I assume that most or all of those listed have their own form of ITAR. Space (mostly defense) is inherently siloed to country borders.
Isn't that most large capital intensive efforts? Also to be fair a lot of US defense and aero contractors have manufacturing partnerships around the world.
No.
For example in university i was part of a satellite design competition. We couldn’t let Chinese nationals on the team or we’d be breaking the law. There was a list of approved countries a team member could have citizenship from, if not we’d be guilty of violating export controls.
