Summary
Wolverine CubeSats for Education Resolution
This concurrent resolution expresses the sense of Congress that
- as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) continues to streamline its STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) engagement program, the CubeSat (small satellite) Launch Initiative should continue to thrive and expand as a priority of Congress and an enabler of American innovation; and
- NASA should prioritize awareness of the CubeSat Launch Initiative in annual budget proposals.
