GLOBAL GROWTH: CIVIL SPACE COOPERATION

Since the earliest days of the Space Race, success required international cooperation and partnerships. Today’s space sector reflects the ethos of that collaborative pioneering era with the construction of the International Space Station (ISS) representing the greatest of human achievements. At two decades of continuous habitation, the ISS is the premier space R&D lab, and companies are utilizing microgravity at the edge of the human frontier 250 miles upwards to solve problems here on Earth. This portion of the summit will focus on increased access to low-Earth orbit (LEO) and the growing importance of global alliances and partnerships to lead the commercial space sector in defining best practices including new uses of airspace for space launch and the traffic management of the LEO domain.
