[SINGAPORE] The formation of the National Space Agency of Singapore (NSAS) marks a pivotal step in the Republic’s push to strengthen its position in the global space economy.

Announced on Feb 2, the agency that will spearhead Singapore’s national space ambitions will come into being on Apr 1 under the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI).
