NASA science cuts and authorization bill await incoming Democratic Congress
The Senate placed the NASA Authorization Act of 2026 (S. 933) on its General Orders calendar as Calendar No. 689, while the FY2027 budget request, including a proposed 46% cut to NASA science, remains unresolved. Advocates are mobilizing ahead of a January 2027 Day of Action, and House space subcommittee chair Mike Haridopolos says bipartisan support will carry NASA funding and Artemis through the incoming Democratic House, with a continuing resolution as fallback. · 4d ago
