'I am honored to receive President Trump's nomination to serve as the next Administrator of NASA,' Isaacman posted on X. 'Having been fortunate to see our amazing planet from space, I am passionate about America leading the most incredible adventure in human history.'.

Americans flooded X with congratulations, saying 'this couldn't have gone to a better person' and expressing excitement about the future of the nation's space exploration. 'We are so lucky to have you lead the way to the moon and Mars,' one X user shared.
While he received a flood of praise, others pointed out a conflict of interest due to Isaacman's relationship with SpaceX. He purchased to missions from the company owned by Elon Musk who was named a Trump advisor. Jared Isaacman, 41, with a net worth of $1.9 billion, has been nominated as the space agency's Administrator, replacing former politician Bill Nelson.
He has flown to space twice, one of which saw him conduct the first civilian spacewalk, making him just the second Administrator to visit the final frontier. 'There is an absolute conflict of interest with his association with Musk and SpaceX. The stench of Musk is all over this pick. How can that not be obvious,' a user shared.
