Arizona is launching a bid to host a new United States Space Academy announced by President Trump.

Arizona is bidding to host a new United States Space Academy, competing against several other states for the honour. President Donald Trump announced plans for the service academy through an Executive Order in August.

Governor Katie Hobbs' office announced on Friday that it has established an Arizona U.S. Space Academy Steering Committee to explore housing the academy and develop the state's proposal. The committee will bring together leaders from the state's universities, industry partners, local communities and the Arizona Space Commission.

Hobbs said the steering committee will highlight Arizona's scientific, aerospace and manufacturing achievements in its bid. The governor's office did not provide a proposed location for the Space Academy within the state.
