HRES 785 United States House · 119th Congress

Expressing support for designation of the week of October 4, 2025, through October 10, 2025, as "World Space Week".

HRES 785 is a non-binding resolution expressing support for designating October 4-10, 2025, as "World Space Week," an annual event established by the UN in 1999 to celebrate space science. It encourages U.S. schools, agencies, and the public to participate in events focused on space technology's contributions to education, sustainable living in space (via the 2025 theme "Living in Space"), and economic innovation. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but formally recognizes the educational and collaborative goals of World Space Week. It aims to boost public awareness of space science's role in daily life and inspire student engagement in STEM fields.
