NASA has been crippled; it will probably not significantly compete in any new projects; and it’s doubtful some of the science programs scheduled to launch in the future will be completed

TBH I don’t really believe anything NASA says when it comes to stuff like this. It’s basically been ~5 years away from going back to the moon and ~20 years from going to Mars for my entire life, and I’m not a young person.

It’s almost like if you gut the people who know what they are doing you can’t do the things that you want to do
