This is the second time OMB under Vought has tried to gut NASA. Canceling active missions is also the most wasteful. It requires so much money and effort to get a mission into space but once it’s there it costs pennies on the dollar to actually get a scientific return from the mission. The point is to harm science.
Theocrats never had much need for science.
