Abstract
Under the leadership of President Trump and at the direction of Secretary Duffy and Administrator Bedford, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) are pursuing opportunities to ensure the United States global dominance in the commercial space transportation industry. The FAA is issuing this RFI to solicit public and industry input on two key transportation- related elements of President Trump's recently published 2026 National Space Transportation Policy (NSTP): siting a new spaceport and the development and use of priority airspace for critical space launch corridors.
