Meanwhile, state lawmakers just created the Texas Space Commission and the Aerospace Research and Space Economy Consortium. Both agencies will offer much-needed structure to the state’s growing aerospace industry and will provide resources and workforce, wrote Mitrah Avini, a policy analyst with the think tank Texas 2036, inTexas is already developing this workforce. The University of Texas at Austin and the University of Texas at El Paso have a partnership with the U.S.
NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston will continue playing a major role in the upcoming missions to the moon. The agency wants to send four astronauts to circle the moon in a 10-day mission next year. The crew includes a female astronaut and a Black astronaut, reflecting America’s diversifying astronaut corps.
Other nations like Russia, China, India and Japan are also invested in the race for moon exploration, but the U.S. still has the advantage, with a moon landing expected for late 2025. It is worth noting that only 12 astronauts have walked the lunar surface. The last time an astronaut stepped on the moon was in 1972.All of these developments in Texas and the U.S. are exciting.
