"Our agency's accomplishments in 2018 are breathtaking. We've inspired the world and created incredible new capabilities for our nation. This year, we landed on Mars for the seventh time, and America remains the only country to have landed on Mars successfully. We created new U.S. commercial partnerships to land back on the Moon. We made breakthroughs in our quest to send humans farther into space than ever before. And, we contributed to remarkable advancements in aviation.
