Vice President Kamala Harris to lead National Space Council
CBSN
The Biden administration over the weekend announced that Vice President Harris will helm the National Space Council, just as her predecessor, former Vice President Mike Pence, did before her.
"As I've said before: In America, when we shoot for the moon, we plant our flag on it. I am honored to lead our National Space Council," the vice president tweeted following the announcement. The council, which helps shape important national space policies and national security strategies related to space for the White House, was reestablished under the Trump administration by executive order in 2017 after it had gone dormant following the end of former President George H.W Bush's term in 1993.More Related News
