In which currency? Budgets of major space agencies:
NASA: 19.5 billion US$ (2017) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budget_of_NASA
ESA: 5.75 billion € (2017) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESA
JAXA: 211 billion ¥ = 2 billion $ (2013) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAXA
CNSA: 1.3 billion US$ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China_National_Space_Administration
We as a planet not even spend 100 billion on space, probably even less than 50 billion. We as a planet spend multiple time that for wars.
