Local Ipswich resident here: Official Parliamentary Petition EN10411 is now LIVE to fund a sovereign Australian crewed space program!
Hey Ipswich,
I'm a local from Eastern Heights and my official House of Representatives e-petition just got certified and went live today.
Right now, Australia is sitting on the sidelines of the global space industry. We train incredible engineers, software developers, and scientists at our universities, only to tell them they have to pack their bags for America or Europe if they want to work in human spaceflight. That goes against our national character.
Petition EN10411 asks the House to permanently fund an Australian crewed space program. This means securing flight slots with NASA and ESA so our local tech, research, and advanced manufacturing sectors can build hardware and run experiments in space. Every dollar stays right here on the ground creating high-tech jobs.
If you're an Australian citizen or resident, please take 30 seconds to sign the official parliamentary link. Let's show Canberra what Ipswich can do and get Australia off the bench!
