Space exploration and science could take a serious hit as funding is slashed by 24% under Trump's proposed budget.


In an article from Time magazine dated May 24, 2023, the proposed budget cuts to NASA by former President Donald Trump are discussed, highlighting their potential impact on space science. The budget, which was proposed in 2018, aimed to redirect funds towards human spaceflight and the development of the Artemis program, which seeks to return humans to the Moon. However, this redirection meant significant cuts to other areas of NASA's operations, including earth science, planetary science, and astrophysics. The article notes that these cuts could delay or cancel several key missions, such as the Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) and the Mars 2020 rover. Scientists and researchers expressed concerns that these reductions would hinder the U.S.'s ability to conduct groundbreaking research and maintain its leadership in space exploration.
