On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the first moon landing mission, the Italian newspaper La Repubblica published an interview with NASA Administrator Daniel S. Goldin. In it he complimented Italy for its good space know how, saying Italians were magicians in the area of space communication. He also mentioned ways in which Italy was cooperating with NASA such as the Italian astronaut who was to help complete the testing of the tethered satellite system and the Italian Space Agency's work with NASA on the Cassini Space Mission. He pointed out that above all NASA counted on Italy for the construction of logistic pressurization modules and that this construction would give Italian firms a technological capacity that would have an impact on all Italian industries.
