, which funds NPR and PBS. This accounts for $1.1 billion of the rescissions package, according to Johnson’s office Tuesday.But just because conservatives have been pushing this for a long time doesn’t mean it’s popular.

showed Americans supported continuing the funding rather than ending it, 43% to 24%. (About one-third of Americans offered no opinion.)Republicans and Republican-leaning voters were more in favor of the cuts, but even there it didn’t seem to be a huge priority. While 44% wanted to end the funding, 19% – 1 in 5 – wanted to continue it.And past polling suggests this could be even more unpopular than those numbers suggest, depending on how the cut is sold.

, for instance, asked about the prospect ofthe Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Americans back then said it was a “bad idea,” 70% to 25%. Getting 7 in 10 Americans to align on any given issue is difficult, but this one did the trick.

This could also be a hurdle for some key Republican votes in the Senate and the closely divided House. Some Republicans from rural areas could worry this would decimate key news and educational programming in their areas.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, for instance, wrote an op-ed last month hailing public broadcasting and warning the administration against cuts. She called it an “Decades later, an international collaboration of scientists decided to rerun the experiments with an even higher degree of precision. The team raced muons around a magnetic, ring-shaped track — the same one used in Brookhaven's experiment — and studied their signature wiggle at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory near Chicago.

The first two sets of results — unveiled in 2021 and 2023 — seemed to confirm the muons' weird behavior, prompting theoretical physicists to try to reconcile the new measurements with the Standard Model.Now, the group has completed the experiment and released a measurement of the muon's wobble that agrees with what they found before, using more than double the amount of data compared to 2023. They submitted their results to the journal Physical Review Letters.

That said, it's not yet closing time for our most basic understanding of what's holding the universe together. While the muons raced around their track, other scientists found a way to more closely reconcile their behavior with the Standard Model with the help of supercomputers.There's still more work to be done as researchers continue to put their heads together and future experiments take a stab at measuring the muon wobble — including one at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex that's expected to start near the end of the decade. Scientists also are still analyzing the final muon data to see if they can glean information about other mysterious entities like dark matter.
