Then she tells us that we are going international. We are opening up an office in Mexico because apparently Mexico is starting up a space agency (AEXA), who knew?

So this got me wondering what other countries had a space program that I wasn’t aware of… I knew the major international partners like Russia (RKA), the European Space Agency (ESA), Canada (CSA) and who can forget the Taikonauts from Japan (JAXA). The newest ones that I knew were coming into their own have been China (CNSA) and India (ISRO) because they have been in the news lately. I did a little bit of research and discovered that Bangladesh had a space program. To see the complete list check it out here.
