Bush proposed spending $12 billion over the next five years on the effort. About $1 billion of that will come from an increase in NASA's budget, while the other $11 billion would come from shifting funds from existing programs within NASA's current $86 billion budget. The overall NASA budget would stay at about 1 percent of the federal budget, according to White House figures.

Sorry, that's the info I was going on
So now I'm confused. The budget request for 16 billion is in addition to NASA's current budget? Is all of that going to Mars? or is it still only 1 billion marked for Mars?
