Trump will sign order to create a US Space Academy
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday to establish a U.S. Space Academy, a new institution modeled after West Point and other prestigious military service academies. The academy, known as the U.S. Space Academy, aims to train service members, engineers, and civilian operators as the U.S. Space Force and commercial space industry expand.
Trump emphasized the importance of U.S. leadership in space, stating that a nation cannot be a top contender on Earth if it falls behind in space. He also announced that NASA is developing the first nuclear-powered interplanetary spacecraft, which is set to launch on a mission to Mars in 2028. This vessel could potentially lead to a fleet of American spacecraft, making space travel a more common occurrence.
