Loans, mostly. Artemis costs about $4 billion per mission, with around $90 billion already spent. The war in Iran is costing the US about $1 billion per day, so (as of today), $35 billion spent. The US debt is $39,000 billion ($39 trillion). So, combined, the entire Artemis program and war in Iran represent .32% of the US debt. | ||
