Annual budget
NASA's budget for fiscal year (FY) 2019 is $21.5 billion. It represents 0.49% of the $4.4 trillion the United States plans to spend that year. Since its inception, the United States has spent $601.31 billion (in nominal dollars) on NASA.
Compare that to defence budget
what defense?
not counting unacknowledged / black programs
and you ask WHY would they lie? lol read up
DoD, as in Army, Marine, Air
the US Defence budget this year alone is $693 billion dollars
again, what defense?
defense, offense however you like to call it
and defense against who
the money they spend on the army
in case of US, more offence, you're right
those are two definetly different concepts, defense and offense
Military budget would be a better term
the public who is waking up to government lies, critical thinkers
It still falls under the “department of defence”
Fact is <:nasalies:485141702403686403>
To also put those numbers in perspective, the departments of energy spend $27.9 billion in 2015. It isn’t odd for NASA to be spending that kind of money.

I agree, decrease the budget of the DoD and increase it for NASA and DoE (for preventing Climate Change)
it is when you consider mainly what they're doing, other than lying, is drowning rockets in the ocean
If we increase NASA budget to 1 trillion we will finally have space exploration derp
That’s speculation....
NASA is relatively broke
member' when NASA showed us the dark side of the moon with earth behind it?
50 years of constant funding tho and nothing
member' the astronaut picture with a tiny earth in the background?
yes, all real. Even though I wasn't particularly alive back then
You aside from a vast satellite network and data from other planets?
what's more speculative? drowning rockets in the sea or rockets reaching 'space'?
what's easier
they are both the truth
what's cheaper?
member' when astronauts cant agree on whether or not they can see stars in space?
