The tech sector has been criticized for under-achieving in comparison to previous, once literal “moonshot” ideas. Various sociopolitical and economic factors have influenced the trajectories of aerospace engineering, space exploration, and the “NewSpace” sector. Meanwhile, relatively new companies like Slingshot Aerospace are being formed to monitor and simulate the chaotic space environment. The overall sector is becoming more dynamic and poised for significant transformation and growth.

In the membership-supported whitepaper “The NewSpace Economy: Preparation and Risk Management,” Policy2050.com thoughtfully explores these issues, providing case studies and creatively visualizing pertinent data.
