This administration has been actively hostile to space exploration. The only support is for moon to mars, because that fulfills billionaire sexual fantasies of ruling over Martian empires.
Projects like asteroid and Kuiper Belt exploration have been absolutely slaughtered. NASA has been cutting education and basically everything not directly connected to long term plans for Martian colonization. It’s also been cut up for parts and sold off to the highest bidder.

What we really need is for China to send someone to Mars first, and suddenly 3% of GDP will be ploughed into NASA’s budget overnight.
