Too Long; Didn't Read
Established in 1976, the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) advises the President on diverse scientific, engineering, and technological aspects. Working in tandem, the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) coordinates science and technology policy across federal entities, aligning decisions with the President's goals. The NSTC's Subcommittee on Cislunar Science & Technology, along with the Cislunar Technology Strategy Interagency Working Group, spearheads interagency collaboration and strategy formulation to advance U.S. leadership in Cislunar space exploration and development.

About the Office of Science and Technology Policy
The Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) was established by the National Science and Technology Policy, Organization, and Priorities Act of 1976 to provide the President and others within the Executive Office of the President with advice on the scientific, engineering, and technological aspects of the economy, national security, homeland security, health, foreign relations, the environment, and the technological recovery and use of resources, among other topics. OSTP leads interagency science and technology policy coordination efforts, assists the Office of Management and Budget with an annual review and analysis of Federal research and development in budgets, and serves as a source of scientific and technological analysis and judgment for the President with respect to major policies, plans, and programs of the Federal Government.

About the National Science and Technology Council
The National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) is the principal means by which the Executive Branch coordinates science and technology policy across the diverse entities that make up the Federal research and development enterprise. A primary objective of the NSTC is to ensure science and technology policy decisions and programs are consistent with the President's stated goals. The NSTC prepares research and development strategies that are coordinated across Federal agencies aimed at accomplishing multiple national goals. The work of the NSTC is organized under committees that oversee subcommittees and working groups focused on different aspects of science and technology.

About the Subcommittee on Cislunar Science & Technology and the Cislunar Technology Strategy Interagency Working Group
The NSTC established the Subcommittee on Cislunar Science & Technology to support new interagency collaboration on Cislunar priorities identified in this strategy. Further, the Cislunar Technology Strategy Interagency Working Group was organized within the Subcommittee to coordinate science and technology policy, strategy, and Federal research and development (R&D) pertaining to Cislunar space. This group aims to coordinate activities, address emerging challenges and opportunities, and advance U.S. leadership and cooperation in Cislunar space.
