NASA Is Generating Far More Economic Growth Than Its Budget

Sounds like we should probably give it more money!

Forget space tourism and commercial spaceflight. NASA wants to remind you that it can still generate mega money for the economy — in addition to providing all the extremely valuable science it does, of course.

According to its latest economic impact report, the cumulative effect of NASA efforts, ranging from lunar missions to technology development, generated over $75.6 billion in US economic output in 2023.
