Not only is Trump leveling science funding at NASA, like he did with the National Science Foundation, but look closely at the budget. Beginning next year at 800 million and by 2030, 3.5 billion (nearly 20% of its budget), NASA is required to work towards “Commercial Moon and Mars Infrastructure and Transportation”. The ultimate subsidy for the commercial space sector.
They also eliminated STEM engagement program, which provided funding for the next generation of scientists to participate in NASA opportunities. I can’t wait for all this greatness Trump has been preaching to arrive.
Lol no it isn’t. Do you only remember the last six months? China has been unreliable for years. The quality of their products are always questionable, lead in cinnamon, plastic fake rice, sketchy backdoor access into anything that comes out of that country. Sure.
On top of that, China is speed running the US downfall. It took decades for factory jobs to leave US, it’s taking a single decade for them to come and go out of China.
