I understand your skepticism but...
I live outside DC. Half the city are feds and the other half are federal contractors.
It's several million people who talk to somebody from NASA/DOD/USDA etc. every day. I'm one of them.
I work at a building where Lockheed Martin, Array technologies and Orbital Technologies all have office space. I'm just a [DATA REDACTED] but scientists are usually happy to go on about their work if you ask with sincere interest.
Google Maryland Trade Center (Greenway center drive, Greenbelt Maryland) and you will see where many ordinary folk rub elbows with the guys who maintain the Hubble telescope.


I also used to work at NASA Langley Research center in Hampton VA but that's another unbelievable post.
