🇺🇸 U.S. CONGRESS: "MAYBE DON’T DEFUND THE PEOPLE STOPPING ASTEROIDS?!"
NASA’s top asteroid-hunting mission is supposed to launch by 2028, but it might not even survive next year’s budget.
The Near-Earth Object Surveyor is designed to spot killer space rocks before they surprise us—like the one that exploded over Russia in 2013 and injured over 1,000 people.
Problem is, Trump’s proposed budget cuts NASA’s science funding nearly in half.
Lawmakers say this is a natural disaster we can actually prevent—if we don’t defund the people tracking it.
