Abstract
The Bush Administration's proposed 15.1‐ billion budget for NASA for fiscal year 2003 represents an increase of just .7% ($98 million) above the current 2002 budget level. While the budget proposal reflects an effort by the administration to encourage improvements in the agency's financial management and other performance metrics, scientists have questioned how changes in the budget would affect several programs.These changes include NASA's proposal to halt funding for the New Horizons Pluto‐Kuiper Belt Mission (see Eos, 5 March 2002) and a temporary moratorium on significant new Earth science mission starts.
