During the latest rally, Donald Trump once again stated his desire to return the United States to the path of space exploration, in particular, his intention to land on Mars, if he wins the presidency. This statement caused widespread resonance among his supporters and critics alike, underscoring the importance of space in today's political debate.
"We will reach Mars by the end of my term," he said during a campaign rally, which was also attended by Elon Musk.
"We will have world leadership in space exploration. Thank you, Ilona," added the Republican.
Trump has promised to land on Mars before - the last such statement was made in September.
