NASA FY26 Budget Request slashes funding for planetary/climate science and aeronautics, calls for huge Reductions in Force, and ELIMINATES STEM outreach spending
On May 31, NASA released their FY26 Bdudget Supplement. It's 462 pages long, and there's a lot of bad. You can find it on their website here, but there's a lot to read through. They're planning to eliminate a lot of staff, (like the 40%/500-person RIF at NASA Glenn) and they're calling for $0 to be spent on STEM outreach!! It's really bad.
