NASA wants to go back to the Moon. That was true even before Donald Trump won the presidency, but a mandate by the administration to make a crewed Moon mission a reality “within five years” dramatically shortened the space agency’s timeline. Now, with the fuse lit, NASA is doing everything in its power to meet that demand, and that means it’s going to need a serious boost in funding.
Accelerating a mission as huge as sending humans back to the Moon means spending a lot more money in a much shorter amount of time, and NASA made that clear. Now, a new House spending bill that could have helped make the Moon mission a reality instead includes no additional allowance for NASA, raising serious questions about the mission.
