An American moon missions goal is set boldly by a congressman from the Space Coast.

The Space Coast's newly elected congressman advocates for the US to establish ambitious objectives for space exploration beyond our planet, as he believes it will propel Americans to new heights, literally.

Rep. Mike Haridopolos, R-Fla., stated in an interview with Planet Chronicle Digital that while it is crucial to ensure safety, the process must be streamlined to enable quicker competition and defeat of China and other nations.

"The moon and beyond is not a cliché from a Disney movie; it is the future."

Haridopolos stated that he would "love" to see the U.S. return to the moon within the next four years under the Trump administration. However, he cautioned that nothing is guaranteed, adding, "We can’t guarantee anything." He attributed the revitalization of the science and space sector to billionaires like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, making such discussions possible.

"It serves as a stepping stone," he stated. "For instance, as we're transitioning towards nuclear power, with the increasing demand for energy in the United States...There are particles on the moon that they plan to retrieve because they are scarce here in America and globally."

On the moon, helium-3 is a highly sought-after resource that plays a crucial role in nuclear fusion processes.

"From that point, you settle the moon, then go on to Mars, which has been Elon Musk's vision. When he thought of things like SpaceX, it was how to get to Mars and pay for it. This inspired new technologies, and now Jeff Bezos is dreaming of the same things. It's exciting."

A first-term lawmaker in Congress represents a region known for hosting NASA's Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

Last year, Florida Today reported that the Space Coast surpassed its previous annual record with 93 orbital launches.

This week, both SpaceX Falcon 9 and Blue Origin rocket are scheduled to host launches.

Both President-elect Trump's vision for space and new House Space Science and Technology Chairman Brian Babin, R-Texas, were praised by him.

Trump officially established the Space Force in 2019, proving his love for space from day one.

The U.S. approach to the final frontier may reflect the same optimism and pride as in 1969, when Americans landed a team of astronauts on the moon.

"Haridopolos stated that Elon Musk's vision of landing on Mars in our lifetime served as an inspiration for his parents' generation. The president also declared that this is the future."
