If/when Democrats get back in control, they need to take a look at all his government contracts. The Trump toadies are putting us over a barrel with space contracts controlled by the whims of one dishonest man whose personal ambitions to colonize Mars do not necessarily support what the US needs. For example, the space station is nearing the end of its life. Where is the analysis of the research that will be lost when it is decommissioned? Do we need a replacement? What now is the purpose of space exploration? It’s cheaper to take care of the Earth we have than to spend billions or trillions on reaching some far-away planet that may or may not support life.
