The United Space Exploration Authority (Nahuatl: 𐐣𐐨𐑇𐐹𐐯𐐻𐑆𐐬𐐰𐑊𐐨𐑆𐐻𐑊𐐨 𐐓𐑊𐐰𐐷𐐰𐐿𐐰𐑌𐐰𐐻𐑊 𐐝𐐨𐐻𐑊𐐰𐑊𐑊𐐨, Mixpetzoaliztli Tlayacanatl Citlalli, MTC) is the space agency of the Zacapine-Pulatec bi-lateral partnership organization. The agency has been a pioneer of expendable and reusable launch systems, artificial satellites and human spaceflight. As the successor to the Zacapine national MCZ space agency pre-dating it by more than a decade, the MTC inherited the developments of the Zacapine aerospace sector made in that time. The foundation of the MTC represented a significant expansion to the Zacapine-Pulatec partnership as well as the resources and scope of the Zacapine aerospace project in civil space exploration with the integration of the Pulatec academic and technological resources into the effort. The MTC carried forward the Zacapine legacy of space exporation with the Citlalpol-1 launched in 1961 by its predecessor through the evolution of human spaceflight, with the program for manned missions to space marking the beginning of the Zacapine-Pulatec joint agency with the Tematlatzilin program still ongoing into the present day. Since its founding, the MTC has established a permanent presence in space and been responsible for three lunar landings, as well as a variety of scientifically significant unmanned missions across the solar system.

The organization is headquartered in the Zacapine city of Angatahuaca, where much of its administration and engineering work is conducted, with its mission control center in Tepetenxipalitlan in southern Pulacan. The Citlalpan Centlanaut Training Center is the central training facility for MTC Centlanauts, located in the environs of Angatahuaca in the Zacapine Aztaco Republic.
