VP Kamala Harris to lead National Space Council under Biden administration

“I am honored to lead to our National Space Council,” Harris says. The National Space Council, a space policy group resurrected by the Trump administration, will continue in a new form under the Biden White House with Vice President Kamala Harris at the helm.

Harris intends “to put her own personal stamp” on the council to focus on a wide variety of space policies, including the sustainable development of commercial spaceflight, “advancing peaceful norms and responsible behaviors in space,” climate change and more, senior administration officials said in a call with reporters Saturday (May 1).

“As I’ve said before: In America, when we shoot for the moon, we plant our flag on it,” Harris said on Twitter Saturday after the call. “I am honored to lead to our National Space Council.”

I’ll bet lots of us remember the big rumble between the Sprites and Jets on the Upper West Side back in ‘57. It was epic!
