Parsing the Space Forceโ€™s budget each year is a difficult task.

The FY2026 budget is more complicated and more difficult to grasp due in part to the reconciliation process lawmakers used as a way to pass President Trumpโ€™s so-called โ€œBig Beautiful Bill.โ€

One part is clear: the Space Force could end up with its largest budget to date in its short history.

But thereโ€™s much to be decided.

In this webinar, we will discuss the fiscal year 2026 budget, what it means for the Space Force, how it speaks to the Trump administrationโ€™s priorities for the service, what it means for Golden Dome and how to understand the funding proposals for space programs.
