DETROIT, MICHIGAN - May 22, 2025 ( NEWMEDIAWIRE ) - Space travel, at least at the federal government level, is taking a hit as the Trump Administration seeks to cut costs. It is reducing NASA’s budget by 24% to $18.8 billion in 2026 from $24.8 billion in 2025. While that marks the lowest budget for NASA since 2015, it isn’t across the board. Certain key programs – including Artemis, NASA’s program aimed at sending humans to the Moon and NASA’s Mars Exploration Program (MEP), which is a long-term program aimed at exploring Mars – are getting reductions in budget dollars, but they aren’t being canceled altogether.
