— John McCrae (1915)
Lest we forget. 🇨🇦 #RemembranceDay

Trump’s FY2026 budget — now at the center of the gridlock as this fiscal year ends — slashes NASA, NSF, & NIH. He has already warned: without a budget, massive federal layoffs loom.🧪🔭

In him we saw the best of the Apollo age: courage in the face of disaster, quiet command in the deep night between Earth & Moon.
Five #Apollo #astronauts remain — 4 who walked on the #Moon. Their legacy is not just history. It’s an unfinished story, calling us to dare again.

We reached for the stars🔭, cured diseases🧪, cultivated great art AND a great economy.
Today? We silence #science & fast-track nuclear reactors to power #AI.
This isn’t progress. It’s a descent into darkness.
First step? Recognize the problem.
❌ TESS, Chandra, Fermi, IXPE, UVEX…
❌ 20+ missions canceled, gutted, or abandoned.
❌ A generation of discovery, erased.
This isn’t belt-tightening. It’s self-inflicted blindness.🔭

This isn’t fiscal discipline. It’s surrender—to disease, to ignorance, to rivals like China. We don’t build prosperity by firing scientists & killing missions.🧪

There is so much rubbish, foundational flaws, unsupported claims, & ideological motives behind the “Restoring Gold Standard Science” Executive Order.
As Carl Sagan said so eloquently 30 years ago, Science is our candle in dark. 🔭🧪

#NSF #education grants were deliberately gutted.
These support future #teachers, K–12 outreach, public engagement, and access to #STEM for underserved communities.
