“With all these start-ups, the things you’ll be able to do with satellite images will grow exponentially.” - IEEE-May 2014
Moving from almost exclusively multi-billion dollar military/defense-communication satellite operations to nextgen 'small cap' startups and 'New Space' ventures and applications with earth systems monitoring, resources, sustainable business, and low-earth orbit space travel with companies like Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic...
