Effects of Donald Trump on NASA and Creation of Space Force

During his administration, Donald Trump made significant changes to NASA and the U.S. space program, including the creation of the Space Force. Here are some key ways in which Trump influenced NASA and initiated the establishment of the Space Force:

1. Space Policy Directive 1:

On December 11, 2017, Trump signed Space Policy Directive 1, which directed NASA to refocus its human exploration program on sending astronauts back to the Moon with a sustained presence and eventually establishing a colony on the Moon as a stepping stone for human missions to Mars by the 2030s.
This directive accelerated NASA’s timeline for returning humans to the Moon from its original target date to 2024.

2. Emphasis on Commercialization:

The Trump administration embraced commercialization in low Earth orbit through programs like the Commercial Resupply Services (CRS) and Commercial Crew Program (CCP).
The CRS program involved partnerships with commercial companies like SpaceX and Boeing for resupply missions to the International Space Station (ISS), reducing NASA’s reliance on Russia.
The CCP aimed to develop commercial vehicles for crewed missions to space, with SpaceX’s Crew Dragon vehicle successfully taking astronauts to the ISS in May.

3. Establishment of Space Force:

In December 2019, President Trump signed into law the creation of the United States Space Force as a new branch of the military focused on space operations.
The establishment of Space Force marked a significant shift in how the U.S. military approaches space activities and national security concerns related to space.

4. Accelerated Timeline and Focus on Moon Missions:

The Trump administration accelerated NASA’s timeline for returning humans to the Moon by focusing on projects that garnered voter support during his presidency.
By pushing for a return to the Moon by 2024, Trump aimed to achieve a defining achievement for NASA during his time in office, though meeting this deadline was deemed unlikely.

5. Impact on Policy and Exploration Goals:

Trump’s policies reshaped NASA’s priorities towards lunar exploration as a precursor to future Mars missions.
The emphasis on establishing a sustained presence on the Moon aimed at leveraging its resources and low-gravity environment for life support systems and fuel production necessary for future spacecraft missions.

In summary, Donald Trump’s administration brought about major changes in NASA’s focus towards lunar exploration, accelerated timelines for human missions, emphasized commercial partnerships in space endeavors, and led to the creation of the U.S. Space Force as a dedicated military branch for space operations.
