Everybody is talking about AI today. Everybody is using it for all kinds of interesting things. AI is definitely changing our interactions with computers and ourselves. We can say we have a technological revolution of AI going on - new opportunities open and old, established approaches feel shaky.
But we also have another, much quieter technological revolution, in space. Flights are up - commercial human flights double in number approximately every 7 years. Space services are up, with biotech currently being one of the most engaged customers. We have more and bigger satellite constellations, like Starlink, and better space telescopes, like JWST. It's less noticeable perhaps though - hardware changes take longer time, and space industry definitely has its own share of problems. Regulatory issues, space debris, harder to find capital are all here. Yet things are changed so much that all existing - and some new - space powers talk about building more modern rockets and reducing further the price to get to space. The momentum is here for the launch industry - the foundation of space tech, so we will see more and more space in our lives. Those who turn to it earlier, who'd figure out the ways to use the new opportunities, seem to be in the right place and time.
