Trump versprach eine Mission zum Mars – aber die NASA steht vor Schnitten und Programmstornierungen. Wissenschaftsprojekte werden gestoppt, europäische Partnerschaften eingefroren und der Schwerpunkt verlagert sich auf private Unternehmen

Trump pomised lots of things but didnt do any of them
At this point I expect the Trump administration to sell Mars to the highest bidder.
prediction: He’ll do the same thing Bush did and sign an EO for an unworkable human spaceflight mission just before leaving office, with the incoming administration having to look like the bad guys when they cancel it.
What?? Trump LIED about something? Say it isn’t so!! I am shocked!!!!
Mars is not a good place for human habitation.
It will be incredibly impractical to sustain human life on Mars and it would be much more economically viable to start creating habitats on Earth (or in the ocean).
He lied. Shocking. Probably realized they couldn’t land on Mars while he was still president (yeah, yeah… obligatory „3rd term“ comments will follow), so he killed it. No glory for him.
The budget is only coming back once the oompa loompa regime is ready to deport people through ICE-NASA, to Mars. And yes considering the current insanity I am considering this a plausible prediction.
That’s because he can grift millions out of a Mars mission. It’s a long enough term objective that he can collect bribes from contractors and deliver nothing. It’s much harder to grift from science based missions.
