SANTA FE, N.M. New Mexico’s congressional delegation wants the federal government to set up the planned new space agency in the Land of Enchantment.

All five members of the New Mexico delegation recently wrote a letter to Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan to argue the new Space Development Agency should be established in the state.

The delegation cited White Sands Missile Range, Spaceport America and the national laboratories as reasons for New Mexico as a good home.
