The Twenty-First Century Commercial Space Imperative by Anthony Young As this book indicates, commercial space business opportunities are beginning to take off, and the field is ripe for early entry by science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) students to pursue careers in the field. An impressive expansion across existing markets and developing new ones await, with multiple private companies competing in the payload launch services sector. NASA now relies on commercial partners to supply cargo and crew spacecraft and services to and from the International Space Station. The sizes of satellites are diminishing and their capabilities expanding, while costs to orbit are decreasing. Suborbital space tourism holds the potential of new industries and jobs. Commercial space exploration of the Moon and the planets also holds promise. All this activity is a catalyst for students whose options are clearly explained in this title. - Softcover, 85 pages
