The American astronomical community is shocked!
Latest news: The Trump administration has proposed significant cuts to NASA's science programs in the fiscal year 2025 budget proposal:
* Cancel Wide Field Infrared Surveyor (WFIRST): Research on dark energy and exoplanets
* Cut funding for Earth Science projects: Reduce support for climate change research
* Terminate NASA Education Office: STEM education and public engagement
* Cut budgets for Astrophysics and Planetary Science: Two-thirds cut from astrophysics, and a small half cut from planetary science!!!!
America's exploration of the universe and space has gone too far, leading alone. Trump's pace is to slow down and wait for others [covering face].
