      The administration requested to cut NASA’s budget by $6 billion. But yeah, they’re gonna manage to throw in a nuclear mars mission and a moon base on that budget.

      I’d like to see these things exist. That means funding them, which these guys refuse to do.

      Isaacman is such a disappointment. But this is what you get when you take someone that has zero relevant experience and make him administrator.

      With what money? The US government is wasting billions on a senseless war in the Middle East, not to mention all the others wasted dollars on other initiatives.

      And they expect to do all this with what, $20B?

      Initiatives like this require immense funding. Otherwise it’s just hopes and dreams and maybe 5% of the project gets done.

      Like others have said, talk is cheap.

    4. The hilarious thing about this is there was a nuclear thermal propulsion rocket built by DARPA that was cancelled when it was nearly at the launchpad. Now NASA suggests it can build an nuclear electric propulsion engine for a Mars mission by 2028? This is 100% not happening. The technology needed to make a reactor feasible, the radiation-hardned electronics, the nuclear design, it does not exist, and it is certainly won’t be TRL-6 by 2028.

      Lmao for years this sub has bitched about gateway and SLS being boon toggled and useless and now that they are laying plans to move away from gateway and SLS it’s a grand disaster
