Key Senate staffer is “begging” NASA to get on with commercial space stations

The plea from the Senate staffer underscores a growing impatience within legislative circles regarding NASA's pace in commercial space development. As private companies increasingly enter the space sector, the pressure mounts on NASA to ensure that the U.S. maintains a leadership role in space exploration and habitation. The call for a seamless transition to commercial space stations reflects broader concerns about the sustainability of human presence in low Earth orbit.
