NASA 's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has told more than 1,000 telework employees that they must return to on-site work.

The move effectively ends remote work at JPL , which had been a fixture at the Pasadena , California lab since the pandemic.

The decision comes amid widespread budget concerns across the space agency, as NASA faces a potential 25% reduction in funds via the Trump administration's 2026 "skinny budget" request.
