Trump Signs Order to Create US Space Academy for Space Force Officers

President Trump signed an executive order to establish the United States Space Academy, a new training institution intended to prepare a pipeline of officers for the Space Force, NASA, and the civilian space industry, with a presidential commission led by NASA administrator Jared Isaacman to oversee its creation. The move aligns with ongoing Artemis missions, though the program’s future faces questions after recent launch setbacks and strategic shifts in the Artemis program.
