    I’m always looking forward to new telescopes! With the way this disgusting excuse of an administration is going though I’m always afraid for the future of all remaining telescopes…

    Gotta free up that budget to cut more billionaires taxes and throw more money at the military ya know?

      Like the VIPER moon rover? Completely built but cancelled. And a bit hard to square with wanting to put boots on the moon since the mission according to Wikipedia was:

      The rover would be tasked with prospecting for lunar resources in permanently shadowed areas of lunar south pole region, especially by mapping the distribution and concentration of water ice.

      I guess that’s pretty small compared to things like the National Center for Atmospheric Research being dismantled. Actually, its a pretty long list
