Yes. On September 10, 2026, NASA published a Request for Information seeking one governor-endorsed submission from each U.S. state interested in hosting and sponsoring the planned United States Space Academy.
Responses are due by 6 p.m. EDT on October 26, 2026. The RFI outlines a timeline calling for a groundbreaking no later than 2027, temporary hosting of about 300 students in 2028, and a permanent campus operating by 2031. The academy follows an August 28, 2026 executive order establishing the institution as a NASA-led civilian federal academic program.
