NASA’s demolition will be a blow to our collective imagination
Rarer says, “It’s very sad, and some kind of meaningless.” “And I think they are going to look at it in a few years, maybe less, and go,” Oh me, what did we do? “
No one me Talked to the piece that thinks NASA would literally disappear. From one thing, Congress is retreating to change, although the government seems to be determined to kill them in a different way or way. Instead, what they think is a whip. Rarer says, “The feeling I gained was a very real possibility that NASA could be reduced to something just one brand.” “Perhaps a copy of the FAA (Federal Air Transport Office), but for space.”
What is currently infrastructure is not just NASA’s technical ability to carry out missions, though this will be bad enough. It is the ability of America and the world to be surprised, believing, knowing, enjoying. “It is almost like reducing our own vision and ambition to say that we are literally, I mean, not literally, literally, we close our eyes into the cosmos and turn into the cosmos,” says Casey Dasta. “This is like witnessing the death of an ideal.”
This death is ongoing. About 4,000 NASA employees are expected to leave the agency this year, or through what the Trump administration calls “deferred resignation” – a kind of voluntary delay – or what NASA is brand “ordinary charm”, which includes people who are out of their agreement. According to a report at Politico, this shows about a quarter of all agency employees and covers more than 2,000 senior leaders.
(In a statement, NASA’s chief of news, Cheril Warner said that safety is “remaining at our agency’s top priority, because we need to become a more efficient and efficient organization to ensure that we are fully capable of pursuing the golden period of exploration and innovation, including the moon and Mars).”
Meanwhile, the government has proposed the 2026 NASA budget, which reduces the overall cost of the agency 24 % and the scientific costs in particular in particular. “This is the biggest one -year decline as a percentage that has been proposed to NASA so far,” Valley says. “These general sources modified to inflation to the extent that it has entered space since the first humans in 1961.”
Trump’s offer NASA’s frozen budget will project up to at least 2030 even while the government is “the Golden Age of innovation and discovery”. To eliminate it, NASA has been a full-time agency-senior January. Sean Duffy, Transport Secretary and former Lumberjack and The real world A member of the cast has been a double duty in this role since July.
There is a lot to do with what will do the proposed budget and a job loss for NASA. To begin with, they mean the end of 41 planned or current missions, according to the planetary community. These include a bold and long -standing program to collect pristine soil samples on Mars and return to Earth, a probe about the solar system beyond Pluto, and an Earth to study and study a giant asteroid that hardly loses Earth in 2029.
