NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, just released its budget request for 2017. Their request asks for much more than is currently being given to them from the "skinny budget" that the government currently has them under. They need this extra funding to continue aiming for Mars, as well as funding for their more commercial endeavors. Hopefully the Trump adminiatration will relieve them of these extreme budget cuts.

Well if he expects them to get a man to mars in a year, than he should be funding them billions.
