It will be a “challenge” to provide NASA the money it needs to follow through on Trump’s goal of returning astronauts to the moon in 2024, the top Senate appropriator for NASA says

It will be a “challenge” to provide NASA the money it needs to follow through on President Donald Trump’s goal of returning astronauts on the moon in 2024, given competing priorities for the space agency, the top Senate appropriator for NASA says.

For example, he said, "I don't think our subcommittee or the Committee on Appropriations is going to zero out STEM education so that money can be spent someplace else." “There's been a skepticism by some that this is a political endeavor related to an election cycle calendar,” he said. “I have no evidence that that's the case. … We've been able to overcome that as we pursued the science and the policy — not the politics — of an early return to the moon.”

Our bill is certainly not finalized, but we have ideas we hope to present when we get to the point ... [of] making our report to the full committee. Our efforts have been bipartisan. [Subcommittee ranking member] Sen. [Jeanne] Shaheen and I work closely together and we will develop a [commerce, justice, science and related agencies] appropriations bill that reflects shared priorities among Republicans and Democrats.

Take 50-150 billion from defense budget. It's cool, really.

“There's been a skepticism by some that this is a political endeavor related to an election cycle calendar.' You don't say...

File all Trump ideas in the trash can and burn it

Take it out of the budget to redo the rose garden, it’s the same stupidity! Americans are dying of decease and starvation!

Just like the old days of the first Moon landings, give them the money they need to get us on the Moon. The economic returns over the years will pay it all back a thousand times over! Think HE3 and Deuterium.

Trumps ideas are stupid so dont worry.

NASA? I thought Mr Trump diverted all $$ to his new proclaimed Space Force.

GOP leaders shoot down Trump suggestion to 'delay the election'The president's idea appears dead on arrival with his own party. Cancel the election till the covid hoax is over.
