White House may seek to slash NASA’s science budget by 50 percent
“It would be nothing short of an extinction-level event for space science.”…
I'm sure SpaceX will gladly step up and fill the void.
There's more to NASA than launching rockets. SpaceX are more engineering-focused, rather than research-focused. It would kind of be like asking a taxi service to do research.
But that would be blanket fraud...
Obviously climate science will be just straight up stopped.
