华盛顿8月20日电（路透社）——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周四签署一份备忘录，旨在大幅增加美国商业航天发射次数，其中包括指示政府机构在联邦土地上寻找新的发射和再入场地。
白宫希望到2030年实现每年至少1000次发射和再入飞行，而去年这一数字为178次——这一数字已经是2013年的10倍，且主要由埃隆·马斯克的SpaceX（SPCX.O）主导，打开新标签页。

这份旨在推动商业航天产业发展的备忘录呼吁各机构激励私营部门合作伙伴共同开发航天运输基础设施，加快审批和环境审查流程，并确保航天发射有足够的无线频谱资源。
特朗普还希望在2028年前让美国宇航员重返月球。该备忘录指示NASA推动商业月球运输服务和商业火星机器人探测，并探索将人类送上火星的商业化途径。
白宫科技政策办公室主任迈克尔·克拉齐奥斯表示，这项新的国家航天运输政策“契合当前爆发式增长的时代，让美国能够引领下一个航天时代”。
他表示，该政策呼吁采取“商业优先方针，确保美国在2028年前实现月球载人任务，2030年前建成首批月球基地设施，并为国家安全提供快速、可靠的发射能力”。
特朗普要求在90天内确定新的联邦再入场地。
特朗普还希望各机构避免开展“排除、阻碍或与美国商业航天运输活动竞争”的联邦政府航天运输活动，除非出于公共安全或国家安全需要。
今年5月，美国联邦航空管理局负责人表示，SpaceX计划在五年内实现每年1万次发射。
SpaceX在2025年完成了170次发射，部署了约2500颗卫星。今年1月，SpaceX表示计划发射由100万颗卫星组成的星座，这些卫星将环绕地球运行，并利用太阳能为人工智能数据中心供电。
特朗普要求多个内阁机构尽快在政府土地上确定未来的航天发射和再入场地，并为关键航天发射走廊指定优先空域。他还希望将航天运输活动纳入空中交通管制现代化体系。
在其第二任期伊始，特朗普曾多次谈及火星任务，当时马斯克——这位曾为其提供大量竞选资金的企业家，将送人类登陆这颗红色星球作为SpaceX的核心任务——曾担任特朗普的亲密顾问和高效政府事务主管。
但国会议员们逐渐将焦点重新放回月球，施压NASA坚持该机构已投入数十亿美元的阿尔忒弥斯月球计划。
特朗普的备忘录还指示联邦机构在个案基础上，考虑在美国境内发射商业外国航天器的申请。

Trump signs memo to help drastically boost US commercial space launches

- Directs government agencies to look at federal land for new launch and re-entry sites
- White House wants to enable at least 1,000 launches and re-entries annually by 2030
- Elon Musk’s SpaceX dominated commercial launches in 2025
WASHINGTON, Aug 20 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday signed a memo to help drastically increase the number of U.S. commercial space launches, including directing government agencies to look at federal land for new launch and re-entry sites.
The White House wants to enable at least 1,000 launches and re-entries annually by 2030, up from 178 launches last year – a figure that is already 10 times higher than in 2013 and dominated by Elon Musk’s SpaceX (SPCX.O), opens new tab.

The memo, focused on boosting the commercial space industry, called on agencies to incentivize co-development of space transportation infrastructure with private sector partners, expedite permitting and environmental reviews and ensure adequate wireless spectrum for space launches.
Trump also wants to return U.S. astronauts to the moon by 2028. The memo directs NASA to facilitate commercial transportation to the moon and commercial robotic access to Mars, and to explore commercial avenues to send humans to Mars.
White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios said the new national space transportation policy “meets this moment of explosive growth and positions America to lead the next era of space.”

He said it calls for a “commercial-first approach enabling Americans on the Moon by 2028 and initial Moon Base elements by 2030, and rapid, resilient launch capabilities for national security.”
Trump wants a new federal re-entry site identified within 90 days.
Trump also wants agencies to refrain from conducting U.S. government space transportation activities “that preclude, discourage, or compete with United States commercial space transportation activities, unless required by public safety or national security.”
In May, the head of the Federal Aviation Administration said SpaceX aimed to reach 10,000 annual launches within five years.
SpaceX conducted 170 launches in 2025, deploying about 2,500 satellites. In January, SpaceX said it wants to launch a constellation of 1 million satellites that will orbit Earth and harness the sun to power AI data centers.
Trump wants several cabinet agencies to quickly identify future space launch and re-entry sites on government property and to designate priority airspace for critical space launch corridors. He also wants integration of space transportation activities into air traffic control modernization.
At the start of his second term, Trump had repeatedly talked about sending missions to Mars as Musk, a major donor who has made sending humans to the Red Planet a priority for SpaceX, served a stint as a close adviser and powerful government efficiency czar.
But lawmakers in Congress slowly put the moon back in focus, pressuring NASA to stick with the agency’s Artemis moon program, on which billions of dollars have been spent.
Trump’s memo also directed federal agencies to consider on a case-by-case basis requests to launch commercial foreign space vehicles in the United States.
