space for earth

Each day, scientists across the globe are unlocking new breakthroughs to tackle society’s most challenging problems. On nearly every metric, the advancement of science and technology is strengthening communities and making life better. Some space technologies, like GPS for instance, have already changed the world economy by impacting everything from ride sharing and dating apps to supply chain transportation and military defense. It has become difficult to imagine an industry that won’t be impacted by real-time satellite data and ubiquitous global broadband in the next decade.

Space is for everybody.

It's not just for a few people in science or math, or for a select group of astronauts. That's our new frontier out there, and it's everybody's business to know about space.
