Today, as per the tabloids, President Donald Trump signed the "Space policy directive 1". Where can I find the original/raw document? (I get the gist from the tabloids, but wanted to read the raw document)
The president Monday signed at the White House Space Policy Directive 1
The full text of Space Policy Directive-1 can be found on whitehouse.gov (and soon, in the Federal Register).
It reads:
