I can one day see #Indian astronauts standing on the lunar surface - next to other nations' astronauts (including, I sincerely hope, Australian astronauts), looking back on our lovely blue world and then looking out to the next steps in humanity's exploration of the cosmos - to Mars, and then, way, way beyond to the edges of our solar system. Ad Astra #India with #Chandrayaan3 blazing the trail to the Moon.

It was a privilege to participate in this critical discussion about Australia's Sovereign Space Capabilities and National Security with @RichardMarlesMP, @CAF_Australia, @SpaceCommandAU and other key leaders in the Australian defence force on behalf of @SpaceMachinesCo
Space is critical to our national security. It was great to meet with industry representatives to discuss how we can harness industry innovation to meet our national security needs, and leverage our unique Australian advantages 🛰️🔭

Replying to @alpsa
@alpsa is promising to employ 100 more doctors over the next four years. That represents a dramatic slowing of medical recruitment. The Marshall Government has employed more than 100 more doctors each year since we were elected.
