This figure was parsed from NASA's FY2027 Congressional Justification, not from a standard budget exhibit. It is approximate and it is not summable with other lines. It is published so you can check it: the citation below names the exact page it was read off. Where a dollar figure matters, verify it there before using it.

From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of NASA's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.

In the agency's own words

What this funds

FY 2025 reflects the funding amount specified in Public Law 119-4, Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and FY 2026 reflects the funding amount specified in Public Law 119-74, Commerce, Justice, Science; Energy and Water Development; and Interior and Environment Appropriations Act, 2026. The FY 2027 budget proposes no funding for NASA's Office of STEM Engagement (OSTEM) including its four projects: National Space Grant College and Fellowship Project (Space Grant), Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR), Minority University Research and Education Project (MUREP), and Next Generation STEM project (Next Gen STEM). NASA's primary role is space exploration and, similar to prior generations that were inspired by the Apollo lunar landings, NASA will inspire the next generation of explorers through exciting, ambitious space missions. No funding is requested for Space Grant, EPSCoR, MUREP, and Next Gen STEM. NASA proposes to use unobligated balances previously appropriated under this heading to support the funding of grants previously awarded by OSTEM.

What was actually awarded

Contracts funded by this line

94 linked contracts. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
