Extinction-Level Event for NASA Science

The Trump administration plans to reduce the science budget in NASA almost half, according to the early budget report to congress.

as Washington Post Reports, the current budget of the current Missiontate Directorate in NASA, which is only $ 3.9 billion, can be reduced.

Although the proposal was not officially submitted to Congress, the cut budget will deal with a devastating blow to the tasks of the ongoing and future space agency, including the next major Tilescope and the task of the return of Mars.

The land science budget, which is worth $ 2.2 billion than NASA, will be more than half under the budget proposal, while planetary science will decrease from $ 2.7 billion to $ 1.9 billion.

It will not just a big step back; This step can be expensive.

“This happened at the level of extinction of NASA,” said the head of the Space Planetary Group Association in a statement. “It has no job and productive scientific tasks and cancels new tasks currently being built, aiming at billions of dollars in taxpayers in this process.”

“This is not effective or a smart budget,” he added.

The last budget does not include the NANCA Grace Roman Space Telescope from NASA, and follow its leading telescopes in Hubble and Webb Space, which will continue to finance it under the proposed budget.

This is despite the evolution of the telescope that is already taking place. The devices are already tested at the Guudard Space Center in NASA, for each And Abu. It is currently scheduled to be launched early in September 2026.

It is important to note that the Trump administration budget proposal is far from putting it in the stone. It is an early draft, called “malfunctions”, before requesting the full fiscal year budget for 2026.

In other words, Congress can still prevent NASA’s science program from igniting.

“I received NASA 2026 in the budget from the administration and budget office and the deliberative process began,” the agency wrote in a statement.

It is not surprising, that the former NASA leaders feel dismay from just a suggestion of cutting the Directorate of Science Mission in almost half.

Bill Nelson, a former NASA director, said, said And Abu.

Nelson also argued that the proposed budget can deal with a devastating success for the Trump signature exploration program. Both the President and his highest followers, Elon Musk, have repeatedly pledged to take astronauts to the surface of Mars.

Although Musk has repeatedly tweets since the budget appeared, he has not been saying about his billed attack on NASA.

“If you brutal NASA with NASA, you have fully provided the exploration program, and this will affect the human exploration program as well,” Nelson told the newspaper.

Regardless of the exciting shock of the previous NASA strands, Congress may have a lot of bones to choose if this budget is proposed.

Actor Zoe Lovrin (D-CA), the highest members of the House, Space and Technology Sciences Committee, has canceled Trump’s approach.

“The influence on these ridiculous cuts would destroy NASA’s ability to implement its basic goals, cut its societal benefits, and the disaster of the US Earth Sciences and Space Institution by throwing billions in taxpayer investments already in the trash.”

“I will do my best to ensure that these reckless proposals are not verified,” she added.

“This huge reduction in NASA flag Art Technica. “I will work alongside my colleagues in the Science Committee to clarify how it would save the American leadership in space and cause severe damage to NASA centers throughout the country.”

senator Chris Van Holin told D-MA for And Abu. “This is like eating your seeds atom, and it will have very harmful effects on our space program, and on national security programs, and you will undermine our leadership in the field of technical innovation and scientific research.”
