Leonard David's INSIDE OUTER SPACE

In this informative video, Jill Stuart, a visiting research fellow at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and Editor in Chief of Space Policy Journal, discusses some of the major political issues linked to government and commercially-based space programs.

Among points discussed, Stuart elaborates on

1) why it is important for countries to have a presence in space;

2) who the major players are in the domain;

3) the military “sub-text” that typically underlines space-centered activities; and

4) the future trajectory of these activities.
