NASA promises to fly football and jersey to the Moon if US wins 2026 World Cup
At a recent event, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman questioned Moon Base program manager Carlos García-Galán on whether the agency could reserve room on a lunar lander for a football, provided the United States secures a victory in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Carlos confirmed, "We will absolutely find space." He further remarked, "They will have to beat Spain in the quarter-final, which is predictable."
