US Senate Approves Billions for Moon Missions Despite Elon Musk's Opposition

The US Senate approved $10 billion for Moon missions, including funding for NASA's Artemis program and the Gateway space station, despite opposition from Elon Musk who criticizes the non-reusable SLS rockets. The budget aims to establish a sustained human presence on the Moon, but cuts to Artemis and other programs could negatively impact European space collaborations and future lunar exploration.
