Space Today is back due to popular demand with another episode!

Episode IV was environmentally focused, highlighting both positive improvements and future concerns regarding space debris prevention and clean-up technologies.

Episode V will focus on how space technology is helping to achieve global sustainability goals. The webinar will tackle the importance of satellite monitoring, whilst bringing awareness to the environmental impact of rocket launches and harmful emissions.

How much does space technology contributes to fighting the existing environmental crises? Is the ‘emission price’ worth paying in order to have the existing monitoring devices on orbit?
