NASA gets $27.2 billion to spend on space, science missions. Moon gets the biggest share

As NASA continues to push for boundaries beyond Earth, trying to better understand the unknown as it plans to return to the Moon and go on to Mars, the US government has allocated a new budget to the American space agency. The White House has allocated $27.2 billion to NASA for its scientific explorations in 2023-24. The new budget is nearly seven per cent up from last year by nearly $1.8 billion. The money will be allocated once it is approved by the US Congress.
