This isn’t about the rocket, it’s about the national origin and the space agency that sent the person

Ok, but the space agency in charge is...still NASA. These aren't American astronauts doing a ride-along on a Japanese mission, it's literally the opposite.

It only mentions the person, not the agency.

The article mentions the agency and OP brought agencies into the conversation in the message I replied to. I wouldn't have hit on it otherwise.
