U.S. House Committee reviews NASA budget for 2027
美國眾議院委員會審查國家航空暨太空總署 2027 年預算
House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology will conduct a critical hearing regarding NASA's Fiscal Year 2027 budget.
行政部門提議的預算為188億美元，相較前一年減少了23%，減幅驚人。
The administration has proposed a budget of $18.8 billion, a stark 23% reduction from the previous year.
雖然該提案優先考慮「登月至火星」的阿提米絲(ㄚㄊㄧˊㄇㄧˇㄙ)計畫，但卻強制要求大幅刪減科學任務的經費，批評者擔憂此舉可能導致超過50個項目被迫終止。
While the proposal prioritizes the Moon-to-Mars Artemis program, it mandates deep cuts to science missions, which critics fear could terminate over 50 projects.
此次立法會議的特色在於行政部門的緊縮政策與立法權之間的衝突。
Many lawmakers argue the proposal essentially mimics a 2026 plan that Congress previously rejected on a bipartisan basis.
由於有指控稱NASA領導層在未獲得國會正式授權前就開始執行預算削減，引發了對權力分立的擔憂，緊張局勢進一步升溫。
Tensions are further elevated by accusations that NASA leadership began implementing budget cuts before receiving formal Congressional authorization, raising concerns about the separation of powers.
由於已有超過100名眾議員表達對削減預算的反對意見，這次聽證會將成為界定NASA未來方向的戰場。
With over 100 House members already expressing opposition to the cuts, the hearing will serve as a battleground for defining NASA's future direction.
署長傑瑞德·艾薩克曼面臨著艱鉅的任務，他必須為這些削減措施進行辯護，同時應對各界對機構信任度以及對全球太空科學領導地位的長期影響所產生的疑慮。
Administrator Jared Isaacman faces the difficult task of defending these reductions while addressing concerns about institutional trust and the long-term impact on global space science leadership.
最終結果將突顯出行政部門是否能克服國會的重大阻力來重塑機構的優先事項。
