Canadian: Canadian Dollars and Gateway

canadian: Trudeau said Canada will develop and contribute a smart robotic system -- Canadarm3 -- that will repair and maintain the gateway, adding the Canadian partnership in the Lunar Gateway will be part of a new Canadian space strategy, according to Global Times China. With the Lunar Gateway, Canada will play a major role in one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken, Trudeau said. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA plans to build a new Lunar Gateway, a small space station in the moon's orbit around 2026. He said Canada will invest 2.05 billion Canadian dollars about 1.56 billion US dollars over 24 years, and the investment will create hundreds of well-paying jobs and contribute 100 million Canadian dollars about 76 million US dollars annually to Canada's gross domestic product. US ambassador to Canada Kelly Craft said in a statement that Trudeau's announcement marks the beginning of a new era of US-Canada space co-operation. The gateway is a moon outpost that will provide living space for astronauts, a docking station for visiting spacecraft, and laboratories for research. (news.financializer.com).
