NASA's budget has been declining since 2023, with a steep cut requested by the Trump administration in 2026. When the FY27 budget is (eventually) passed, will it be larger than it was for FY25?

Recent budgets for NASA:

2023: $25,384M

2024: $24,875M

2025: $24,875M (continuing resolution)

2026: Contested, $18,809.1M requested

2027: ???

As you can see, the US senate version of the FY26 budget was actually larger than the FY25 budget:

Recently, Congress released a budget plan for FY26 that is 24.4 billion, which basically reverts all of the requested cuts. If it passes, it is still a decrease from FY25 but not by much.

I interpret this as a positive indication for the FY27 budget.

The purpose of asking this question is to figure out if the United States is serious about its lunar exploration program.
