The news, and how it was delivered, did not go over well with University of Washington astrophysicist (((Sarah Tuttle))), one of the petition's four creators:
NASA is relying on cowardice & poor PR technique to leak that they will not be renaming the JWST, named after a career administrator who oversaw homophobic persecution & development of psychological warfare, ignoring the request for reconsideration from 1,200 astronomers
it's a google doc with a submission form
They have ignored both the petitioners and the advisory committee that requested an investigation, and have provided no details on either their research or their decision

I cannot argue with any of that.
