In his new position, Mr. Jordan will lead the office’s mission to oversee and promote economic activity in space, using economic efforts to help further the country’s prominence in the global space sector.

In a recent press release, Mr. Jordan stated “I am deeply honored to lead the nation’s principal office dedicated to promoting commercial space activity,” said Jordan. “Strengthening America’s leadership in space is a top priority of this Administration, and I look forward to working with industry and government partners to advance U.S. commercial interests in the space domain.”

Originally formed in 1988, the Office of Space Commerce has achieved a wide variety of accomplishments in recent years, including streamlining numerous space regulations, establishing a modern space traffic safety system (TraCSS), and encouraging international space business partnerships and trade.

We look forward to welcoming your attendance and participation in what promises to be a dynamic discussion regarding the Office of Space Commerce’s plans under Mr. Jordan, as well as how our space community can most effectively support and ultimately benefit from the office’s mission of furthering economic efforts in space.

Taylor Jordan, Director of the Office of Space Commerce

U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick has announced the appointment of Taylor Jordan as Director of the Office of Space Commerce (OSC), underscoring the Trump Administration’s commitment to strengthening U.S. leadership in space commerce.

Mr. Jordan brings more than 15 years of space policy and operational experience to the role. He previously served nearly a decade on the staff of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology as the committee’s subject-matter expert on NOAA, environmental satellites, and civil space programs. In that capacity, he was the lead author of the Weather Research and Forecasting Innovation Act of 2017.

During President Trump’s first term, Mr. Jordan served as a senior policy advisor at NOAA, where he supported the agency’s satellite programs and provided strategic oversight of major space-system acquisitions.
