australian plan: The announcement came after Morrison made a state visit to the White House on Friday, with the red carpet rolled out, signaling Australia's strong ties with the United States after a period of tense relations with China, according to The Japan Times. The investment is part of a broader Australian plan to beef up its space sector, with Morrison saying the government wants to triple the size of the sector to A 12 billion and create some 20,000 extra jobs by 2030. Morrison, visiting NASA headquarters in Washington, said the five-year investment plan would help businesses support U.S. automation systems, build equipment for space craft and play a role in mineral exploration. ; We're backing Australian businesses to the moon, and even Mars, and back, Morrison said. Trump, when asked at a joint news conference with Morrison about the U.S. space program, said the focus was on Mars. The moon is actually a launching pad. We're stopping at the moon, he said, according to a transcript.
