Federal Academy To Train Next Generation Of Space Professionals
US President Donald Trump has announced plans to create a NASA-led federal academy to train professionals for careers in the rapidly growing space sector. The Presidential Commission on the United States Space Academy, chaired by NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman, will develop a detailed plan for the proposed institution within 120 days. The academy aims to address the growing demand for specialized workers across the US space industry and government, as NASA pursues increasingly ambitious exploration programs and commercial space activity continues to expand. The proposal was announced during an event at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, as reported by AeroTime.
