In 2020, during the Trump Administration, the United States, under NASA's leadership and in collaboration with the State Department, along with seven other founding nations, initiated the Artemis Accords. These accords introduced a set of foundational principles aimed at promoting safety, transparency, and coordination in civil space exploration on celestial bodies like the Moon and Mars.
