Trump orders exploration of commercial avenues to send humans to Mars

The United States administration, under President Donald Trump, has issued a directive to NASA to investigate commercial avenues for human missions to Mars. The initiative aims to develop the capacity to transport humans to the planet and ensure their safe return to Earth as part of a new national space policy.

This directive is intended to expand American capabilities in space transportation. By exploring commercial partnerships, the policy seeks to leverage private sector involvement to support long-term objectives for human deep-space exploration.
