A resolution supporting May 3, 2024, as "National Space Day" in recognition of the significant positive impact the aerospace community has and will continue to have on the United States of America.

This resolution designates May 3, 2024, as "National Space Day" to recognize the aerospace community's contributions to U.S. innovation, security, and scientific advancement.
