If Joe Biden is elected president, he will have a decision to make concerning a new international agreement governing space exploration. NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine announced that eight nations have signed the Artemis Accords, an agreement that covers relevant areas of space exploration ranging from the use of resources to space debris removal. The agreement is meant to complement the Outer Space Treaty of 1967.

The initial signatories of the Artemis Accords are Australia, Canada, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
