The Ethics and Equity of Space

Space is a really unique place where we all share one environment that we want to operate in and benefit from. There's a lot of monitoring that can happen from space to verify that those metrics are being met. Space is fully shared once we're up there, so how do we make sure that we have equitable access to that? It's not just the countries that were their first, right? Or the former us. How do we enable those countries that are newer to space, right, that are launching their first satellite, that they can still have access to that?" "We need brilliant engineers ... but we also need brilliant communicators," she adds.
