US President Barak
Obama has proposed $19 billion for the US space office in the financial 2017
spending plan - somewhat less that $19.3 billion (generally Rs. 1,31,100
crores) Nasa got for the financial 2016.
By beginning numbers
discharged by Nasa, while $5.6 billion are reserved for science, $3.3 billion
(generally Rs. 22,416 crores) are for profound space investigation programs
like Mars.
The proposed spending
plan additionally records $5.1 billion for space operations, including $1.4
billion (generally Rs. 9,509 crores) for upkeep of the International Space Station
(ISS) and $1.2 billion (generally Rs. 8,151 crores) for the Commercial Crew
system to supplant the space carry, the US space organization said in an
announcement.
"The $19 billion
(generally Rs. 1,29,063 crores) spending plan, as proposed, would move a few
assets from Nasa's Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion projects to flight and
space innovation, notwithstanding the general cuts, while additionally move
stores inside of the organization's science account," spacenews.com
reported.
The abatement in Nasa
spending plan is incompletely because of Obama's proposition to cut $840
million (generally Rs. 5,705 crores) from profound space investigation programs
and $100 million (generally Rs. 679 crores) from planetary science.
"This imbalanced
proposition keeps on tieing our space explorers' feet to the ground and makes a
Mars mission everything except inconceivable," Lamar Smith, director of
the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, said in an announcement.
"This is not the
proposition of an organization that is not kidding about keeping up America's
administration in space," Smith included.
In a "Condition of
Nasa" discourse at the office's Langley Research Center, Nasa executive
Charles Bolden made no particular notice of those cuts.
"We'll keep on
gaining incredible ground on the SLS," he said.
