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].
