NASA To End Chandra After 24 Years Due To New Budget, Hubble May Not Be Far Behind
NASA has unveiled its budget for 2025, maintaining the funding level at $25,383,700,000, consistent with allocations in 2023 and 2024.
While $25 billion may appear substantial, it accounts for less than 0.4 percent of the United States’ total expenditure for the upcoming year.
To put it in perspective, for every $100 spent by the U.S. government, NASA receives a mere 34 cents, while the Defense budget equates to $12.26.
In addition to the budget for 2025, NASA’s financial plan extends to proposed allocations up to 2029, offering glimpses into future priorities.
Notably, a significant adjustment that will impact high-energy astronomy departments is the gradual reduction in funding for the operation of the Chandra X-ray Observatory.
According to the proposed forecast, Chandra’s budget will undergo nearly a 50 percent decrease, plummeting from $41.1 million in 2025 to $26.6 million in 2026, IFL Science reported.
