As a Dutch national living in the UK I did get somewhat excited to at least have a look at the code. It is always disheartening to read these exclusion statements for a institution with a global appeal like NASA. At the very least its bad press for them in a global science community.
I'm also somewhat amused by the claim they expect a 1000x performance improvement.
