Description

Rapid technological development has created new economic activities in space, with an increase in the number of commercial satellites, especially those in Low Earth Orbit (LEO).  These new satellites are enabling innovative services and enhancing traditional ones. For example, earth observation small satellite constellations are imaging anything on the planet’s surface in high resolution on a daily basis and could soon be hourly.  Space images are used by AI in market analytics and asset management. Space broadband companies are already testing their enormous satellite constellations and creating data centers in space might be reality sooner than we think. The new space sector provides ample opportunities but also brings new security threats and vulnerabilities. Let’s take a moment and see what space technology might bring for the future.
