I don't know, depends. We have talks, we're having talks with them now. And we're not flying anymore with 18-hour flights every time we want to see a piece of paper. We're doing it telephonically, and it's very nice. I make a call or I have my people make a call and you know the answer in five minutes. I always like face-to-face, you know, I consider it better. But when you have to fly 18 hours every time you want to have a meeting, and you know what the meeting's all about, and you know they're going to give you a piece of paper that you don't like before you even leave, it's ridiculous. They've come a long way. The question is whether or not they're going to go far enough. So at this moment, there will never be a deal unless they agree that there will be no nuclear weapon.
President Trump Participates in a Greeting with Artemis II Astronauts
Yes, are you considering relocating NASA's headquarters out of DC? States like Florida, Texas, and Ohio have expressed interest.
You're going to have to say it differently.
Sorry, are you considering relocating NASA's headquarters out of DC once the lease is up? States like Texas, Ohio, and Florida.
Well, the best man to tell you that is the man standing right over here. You heard that question with those beautiful ears of yours? He's got great hearing, you know, super he's got super hearing.
Trade of the trade, sir. And I think the answer to that is we have a number we have 10 amazing centers around the country that all kind of bubble up to contribute to the mission we're able to undertake like Artemis II. I think in terms of the headquarters, we have a lot of people very interested in our mission. So being here in DC gives us the opportunity to kind of interact with all our stakeholders, make sure we make the right decisions for the nation.
Yeah, DC is an advantage, I guess for you. You've got to go around, you've got to see some senators, make sure they keep going, right? Probably staying around's not so bad. And importantly, Washington DC is now one of the safest cities in the country. When I came here a little more than a year ago, it was a very unsafe city. And now, maybe even more importantly than that, we have the hottest country anywhere in the world and you helped make it hot, you know, you helped make it hot. When a year and a half ago, and I say it a lot, the King of Saudi Arabia and others also, the King of Saudi Arabia said, "Mr. President, a year and a half ago, a year ago, we thought you had a dead country. We thought the United States was a dead country and now you have the hottest country anywhere in the world." And we do. And believe it or not, I mean when everybody in the world was watching that incredible performance by NASA, these incredible people behind me, where they get the bravery I have no idea, but you're being part of it. You really are. We have the hottest country in the world. Thank you very much, everybody. It's great.
