New Technologies And Actors Transforming Access To Space
The United Nations is marking World Space Week with the theme ‘Rocket Revolution’, highlighting how new technologies and falling launch costs are transforming access to space. According to Aarti Holla-Maini, head of the UN Office for Outer Space Affairs, more countries and institutions can now use space technology to address national priorities and support sustainable development. The UN is working to ensure that all countries and communities can benefit from the expanding space economy, including those without the resources to reach orbit themselves.
