Hard to believe, but at least the Florida Senate thinks so, according to Florida Today. A Senate study found “nearly three dozen agencies, authorities and organizations” that mention space in their titles or mission statements. The Senate’s concern is that this profusion of space-related organizations may not give the state a united front. The solution? You guessed it, a commission, namely the “Commission on the Future of Space in Florida”. The commission—assuming legislation establishing it makes it through the Florida Legislature this year—will look at how better Florida can compete in the private space industry.
