NASA’s New Cost-Cutting Mission Will Save Millions Of Dollars On Space Expeditions
Space missions are expensive, and sending the smallest aircraft to space can cost somewhere between $62 million to $450 million. Being the most potent US government agency for studying the cosmos, NASA spends billions of dollars every year for their expeditions into space. Technological advancement is on the verge of cost-cutting these huge space expeditions by a considerable amount. By sending small scale satellites instead of an actual 230-foot-tall Falcon 9, which costs more money, energy, resources, and people, NASA is planning to send small scale satellites instead of a real space rocket to study the secrets of the cosmos. NASA is planning to launch four new space projects with small-scale satellites with a fraction of its former space missions budget. The Pioneers space program, which is curbed at $20 million for each space mission, is the newest cost-cutting method in the NASA expedition lineup for 2021. NASA will squeeze their tiny budget to study outer space, including the gal...
