Glex 2025: The funds given to government institutions and agencies have been reduced on a large scale since Donald Trump became President of America for the second time. After some universities in the US, the Trump administration has also cut the financial assistance to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
This time NASA’s Astronaut and scientists did not arrive to participate in the Global Space Exploration Conference (GLEX-2025) held in Delhi. Representatives of 37 countries are participating in this program organized in the capital, but NASA representatives did not attend it.
24.3 percent reduction in NASA budget
The Trump administration has cut the budget to the US space agency NASA by 24.3 percent. The conflict of interest between NASA and Alan Musk’s spacex has also played an important role in this deduction. Some experts have claimed that the NASA funding is feared that many space contracts will be found to SpaceX.
Alan Musk is one of the closest advisors of Trump and oversees his cost-cut attempts for DOGE. Trump’s choice to lead NASA has flew into space twice with Tech billionaire Jered Isaid Isaid Space X, which has increased more concerns about the conflict of interest.
Musk’s Starlink close to launch in India
The absence of NASA from the GLEX conference is at a time when Musk’s affordable internet service Starlink has reached close to the launch in India. It has received a letter from the Department of Telecommunications (LOI) after the company agreed to follow the new national security guidelines for SATCOM operators. V Narayanan, president of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), refused to make personal comments when asked about the absence of representatives of the US space agency.
‘India is moving forward with new confidence in the field of space’
At the GLEX Summit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Wednesday that India is moving forward with new confidence in the field of space exploration and its astronauts will be on the moon. He said that apart from setting up Indian space stations by 2035, Mars and Venus are also on the country’s radar for investigation missions.
