Texas is getting a grid upgrade thanks to @POTUS! 🇺🇸⚡️
@SecretaryWright: “These funds are allocated with a focus on making the electrical grid more resilient…just focusing on common sense, making energy more robust."
🇺🇸👏
Today, @SecretaryWright announced new investments to strengthen America's power grid and lower electricity costs! 🇺🇸
Microreactors can strengthen America’s energy resilience by delivering reliable power to military installations, remote communities, and disaster-stricken areas when traditional infrastructure is unavailable.
Advancing next-generation nuclear technologies is critical to securing America’s energy future.
Did you know microreactors could one day be used to power military bases, disaster recovery efforts, or remote locations where traditional infrastructure doesn’t exist? Learn more about microreactors ⬇️

Sometimes one extraordinary view is all it takes to remind us how incredible spaceflight is, and how much we still have to explore.
This morning’s “space jellyfish” gave people across the East Coast a reason to look up as @SpaceX launched science and supplies to the @Space_Station for @NASA. Hopefully it inspired a few to keep looking up!
These incredible photos from the ground and from space capture the launch of SpaceX CRS-35. Expedition 75 eagerly awaits its arrival, carrying important science to help further our ambitious goals of space exploration as well as critical hardware for extending the life of @Space_Station which will be used in future spacewalks.

🚀 Another incredible morning on Florida’s Space Coast!
This morning’s SpaceX Falcon 9 launch from right here in our district created a breathtaking, once-in-a-lifetime view over the Banana River as it carried supplies to the International Space Station.
Proud to represent the community at the heart of America’s future in space!
A major commitment to America’s scientific future. 🇺🇸

Tech companies are pledging $2.4 billion in computing resources to support the Genesis Mission, equipping U.S. researchers with advanced Super Intelligence capabilities to accelerate scientific breakthroughs.

This is how we strengthen American innovation and advance discovery.

Nuclear power will take America farther into space.

A new MOU between @NASA and @ENERGY is another major step toward nuclear-powered missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

The future of deep-space exploration is nuclear.

We’re getting America underway on nuclear power in space and ushering in the era of a Nuclear NASA.
With the signing of an MOU with @ENERGY, we’re taking the next giant leap toward exploring the outer solar system and sending American astronauts to Mars. Fission power will help us travel farther, operate longer, and power more capable scientific instruments.
