Ranking member of the House Subcommittee on Space and Aeronautics Brian Babin (R-Texas) has said the United States has fallen behind its adversaries in the development of its space program and space weaponry and must encourage STEM studies to advance the U.S. space industry.
“We need engineers and physicists and people that will go into our space industry,” Babin told the host of NTD’s Capitol Report, Steve Lance.
