SPACE, an intradepartmental task force, will support U.S. space transportation goals.
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) recently announced the launch of the Space Policy Administration, Coordination, and Execution (SPACE) Task Force. This intradepartmental task force will be comprised of officials from various department agencies, including the Federal Aviation Administration, Office of General Counsel Office of Research and Technology, Office of Transportation Policy, Office of Multimodal Freight Policy, and Office of Aviation and International Affairs.
The task force will facilitate the implementation of the National Space Transportation Policy established by President Trump. The SPACE Task Force is intended to strengthen national security, increase economic competitiveness, and support innovation to reach U.S. space exploration goals.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy stated, “Under President Trump, the U.S. is leading in commercial space innovation. America had 217 of the 329 commercial space launches worldwide in 2025 and we expect that number to soar to 10,000 FAA-licensed launches and reentries yearly by 2035. This SPACE Task Force is going to ensure this next era of space transportation is led by America.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Secretary Duffy as he oversees the formation and function of the new SPACE task force
- For Under Secretary Ryan McCormick and the members of the task force as they work to support U.S. space travel and exploration.
- For President Trump as he casts his vision for and issues orders regarding the future of travel.
