NASA Exploration Mission Integral to 2020 National Space Policy
WASHINGTON (NASA PR) — President Donald J. Trump issued the National Space Policy Wednesday. Through this policy, the president reaffirms his commitment to move space exploration goals beyond low-Earth orbit and return humans to the Moon for long-term exploration and utilization, followed by human missions to Mars and other destinations.
“The National Space Policy reflects bold leadership in this resurgent era of space exploration, as Americans once again step beyond Earth orbit, starting with the Moon, and continuing on to Mars and beyond,” said NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine. “NASA will play a critical role via the Artemis program, in cooperation with private industry and international partners, in meeting the policy goals of establishing a permanent human presence on the Moon while enabling dynamic science and commercial opportunities, including space resource utilization.”
The policy also provides NASA-specific guidance concerning:
- Operation of the International Space Station, in cooperation with international partners, for scientific, technological, commercial, diplomatic, and educational purposes while developing separate commercial platforms
- Space exploration technology development efforts to increase capabilities for future human and robotic space exploration missions while decreasing mission costs
- Capabilities to detect, track, catalog, and characterize near-Earth objects to warn of any predicted Earth impact and to identify potentially resource-rich planetary objects
- A broad array of programs for space-based observation, research, and analysis of Earth’s surface, oceans, and atmosphere and their interactions to improve life on Earth
- Space science for observations, research, and analysis of the Sun, space weather, the solar system, and the universe to enhance knowledge of the cosmos, advance scientific understanding, understand the conditions that may support the development of life, and search for planetary bodies and Earth-like planets in orbit around other stars

and trump world dies 20 Jan Noon 2021 be there aloha
You people and your sick jokes. Nancy had a good one the other day. She said they came up with a new Strategy for the 2nd Stimulis, they’re ‘Biden’ their time. Everyone laughed & will Sing as Happily as the Whos when they woke up to find themselves robbed by the Grinch, on Christmas!
‘trump world’ isn’t going anywhere. The Soviet premier left two letters, but I expect Biden has hundreds. We will hear about investigations & responses, new allegations, accomplices turned witnesses & tell all books for years to come.
‘trump world’ is a giant bigger then the sun, blinding many, burning some, and occupying more minds then the fall of Richard Nixon. This King of Ratings, is on all the Networks, in all the Magazines, Newspapers, Newsletters, Social Media, perhaps even reaching the most isolated Tribes on Earth. He is the biggest patsey since Oswald, even being compared to Nero with a moment to consider President Bush, President Obama or President Clinton. ‘trump world’ turned the intellectual giants on the left, used them to stop Bernie Sanders from becoming the 1st Jewish U.S. President, & had the screaming about Nazis while they did it. This Beast, ‘trump world’, I fear is far more dangerous, but I hope I am wrong & you’re right. Then again, the idea I can rest easy in the promise of a future Biden Administration, is just too hard to believe.
I dont like any of the view points in the Stim discussion
Pardon me Sir, I didn’t mean to sound unhopeful. Now that Joe “the Hands” Biden is coming, we will again have a President that respects females, not hug them, pet them, grope them, or stand uncomfortably close behind them & whisper in their ear! Begone President Trump, we won’t have locker room in this White House lol
*Locker Room Talk. I am laughing so hard I can’t type. 1st you laugh, then you cry. Thank god for that SN8 Test Flight, otherwise I don’t know how I’d be able to get up and regroup!
