Trump Planning Brutal Cuts to NASA: "Extinction-Level Event for NASA Science"

Former President Donald Trump is reportedly planning significant budget cuts to NASA if he wins the 2024 presidential election, according to a draft budget document obtained by NPR. The proposed cuts, described as "brutal" and an "extinction-level event" for NASA's science programs, would reduce the agency's budget by about 22%, from $27.2 billion to $21.5 billion. These reductions would severely impact NASA's science division, particularly affecting the Earth Systems Observatory and the Geospace Dynamics Constellation, both of which are crucial for monitoring climate change and space weather. The cuts would also delay the Artemis program, aimed at returning humans to the Moon, and could lead to the cancellation of several other key missions. Critics argue that these cuts would undermine U.S. leadership in space exploration and scientific research.
