SPI Director, Dr. Scott Pace, was quoted in The Washington Post in an article about India’s Chandrayaan-3 Moon landing.

The article “India’s Moon Landing Sets the Tone for a New Type of Space Race” examines India’s space program and its recent lunar mission, compares it with Russia’s unsuccessful landing, and explores the relationship between space and terrestrial geopolitical conditions.

“Space exploration holds continued appeal because it allows governments to show that they are “voting for an optimistic future, … Because we expect to be important countries not only now, but in the future — and space is going to be a part of that future and we intend to be there.”
