Astronauts on the Moon will face 200 times more radiation than on Earth and temperatures as cold as -280°F. This is much harsher than any environment on our planet.

Trump proposed cutting the agency's overall funding by 24% and slashing the agency's #science budget by nearly half.

Such moves have sparked protests by #scientists, #engineers and regular folks who care about space science and #exploration. For example, nearly 300 #NASA scientists recently signed the #VoyagerDeclaration, warning that the budget cuts, if enacted, would have devastating effects on #AmericanScience and could impact #AstronautSafety.
