President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence are expected to speak to space program workers in the Vehicle Assembly Building after NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley successfully blasted off from Cape Canaveral inside the Crew Dragon capsule on SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket.
The event marked the first launch of American astronauts from U.S. soil in nearly a decade.
Historically this will be one of the most important speeches our beloved President Trump ever gave to the new generations and the transition to a new free and just world. God Bless President Trump 2020!
One of the tasks that President Donald Trump has before him, along with revamping immigration and trade, repealing and replacing ObamaCare, and rebuilding the military, is restoring America’s space exploration program to its former glory. Press reports suggest that the administration is looking at an early return to the moon, using commercial partnerships.
To understand the task that the president and whomever he chooses as NASA administrator have before them, it is useful to look back on how profoundly and adroitly President Barack Obama crippled the space agency’s efforts to send astronauts beyond low Earth orbit. When Obama came into office, he did what a number of other presidents have done to determine their goals for NASA: he formed a presidential commission to study the space agency and come up with some recommendations.
