Is there a list of the missions that are being cut?
Such a shame. This administration is unbelievably short-sighted.
If the US cuts its radioisotope power systems program, is the US then limited to going only as far out as Jupiter?
That’s insane, that would mean that after decades, the US would lose access to almost all of the outer solar system. Might not even be able to make it to Saturn. What a loss.
Remember when Buzz Aldrin came out supporting Trump because he thought it would increase NASA’s budget? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Is that the lowest funding in inflation adjusted dollars or just dollars. Because if it’s the latter it’s even worse than it sounds.
Man, so many good missions are gonna be lost due to this. Worst timeline (I suppose it could get even worse but still).
🙁
Science is fundamentally incompatible with MAGA Christian Nationalist’s world view.
Move on, nothing to see here. Trump is just following orders, Russian or Chinese, to gut the US lead in primary science. MAGA: Make America Grovel Abroad
It was low in 1961, while we were frantically trying to get a man into space for the first time?
