NASA finally admits what everyone already knows: SLS is unaffordable
Important context…SLS isn’t the rocket NASA designed or asked for in order to achieve its mission goals… it’s the rocket they were forced into using due to lobbying and senate shenanigans, there’s a reason it has the nickname “senate launch system”.The fact the pork barrel project is so bloated it’s “unaffordable” is irrelevant as far as the senators who are voting for it are concerned.My bet is that the senate will just raise the budget because and continue to make SLS happen as they have always done since the SLS program began.
