- Every living former head of NASA's Science Mission Directorate opposes the White House's proposed 47% budget cuts for FY 2026.
- The cuts would jeopardize current successful missions and halt future investments in space exploration and innovation.
- Seven former NASA science leaders, serving from Reagan to Biden administrations, urge Congress to reject the cuts.
- The proposed cuts could lead to a significant loss of human knowledge and inspiration in space science.
- The Planetary Society, a major space advocacy group, supports the opposition and is available for interviews.
