Science funding was hit in 2025. What does that mean for the future? – Consider This from NPR – NPR

Consider This from NPR

Science funding was hit in 2025. What does that mean for the future?

December 23, 20254:27 PM ET, 11-Minute Listen Transcript

2025 was a hard year for science. The Trump administration upended federal funding for all kinds of scientific pursuits, slashing budgets across agencies like NASA, NIH and NOAA. PR’s Rob Stein and Katia Riddle spoke to scientists and officials who worry that those cuts could cause the United States to lose its competitive edge as a global hub for research and innovation, and steer future generations away from careers in science.

I was recently in Washington, D.C., as part of a group of ordinary citizens talking to Congress about why we love space and why we support NASA funding. Here are my final thoughts and reflections about this experience:

I recently returned from a trip to D.C. to help advocate for NASA funding. I'll have more to say about that on my blog sometime next week.

But part of my trip got me thinking about the life of a writer, and that's my topic for this month's Insecure Writer's Support Group post.

@dragonarchitect not at atmosphere pressure, but I recently learned about crazy stuff in ice giant planets, where it could not only rain diamonds but also a lake of fluid diamonds would be so high density that the rained down diamonds could float like icebergs in it. Absolutely bizarre. It was in a recent episode of #planetarysociety podcast.
