The White House has proposed substantial budget reductions for NASA for the second consecutive year, targeting the agency's core operations and missions. The cuts would affect multiple areas of NASA's portfolio, with particular emphasis on science programs and International Space Station activities.

The proposed reductions would impact NASA's science programs, which encompass planetary exploration, astrophysics, Earth science, and heliophysics missions. The International Space Station, which serves as a critical platform for scientific research and international cooperation, would also face operational challenges under the proposed budget constraints.
