So, we all know what's going on here, right? They're gutting any part of our society that relies on intellectual work and trying to compete with motherfucking robots to bring factories back. They want to cram everyone into sweatshops. The plan was never to bring good jobs back, the plan was always live-in factories and suicide nets on the windows.

E: well, at least the Roman space telescope lives on, I guess. I'm unreasonably excited for it; it's already built and just needs to be launched, basically.

This is the same vibe as when the CEO gets a million dollar raise but we don't have money for cost of living increases this year.

Sorry USA kids. No astronaut program this summer. Dream smaller this year.

So, Trump wants NASA to get to the Moon and Mars by 2030 while on a slashed budget with limited scientists? Get ready for more spacecraft to drop out of the sky.

It's okay. Europe and China will replace the US and the world will be better off.

Don’t forget that women and marginalized populations are now being discriminated against.

Trump is doing more for the science programs in other nations than those nations ever could.

It's not like American scientists and intellectuals will flee to other nations that value themselves more, crippling US innovation...right?

I seriously don't understand why he is doing this. Isn't trump friends with eslong musk? The way i'm seeing this is cutting the budget for nasa would only go against elon. If he wanted to save money, then he should have just cut military spending.

Is NASA a threat to Elon's monopolization of launches?

Arm up and say no fucking way goddammit

and we'll call the company, Union Aerospace Corporation
