It makes sense. I’d use rust over C/C++ for any new projects. It’s fast, it’s native and it has compile time guarantees about what and what isn’t possible when the code runs.

All great attributes when writing spacecraft code.

were covered up by the same man (MIT President Rafael Reif) that deliberately concealed the source of millions of dollars in gifts to MIT from convicted child rapist Jeffrey Epstein, why should anyone care what Lincoln Laboratory endorses?
