Human ingenuity and technological innovation have democratized space resulting in the meteoric rise in national government programs and new commercial enterprises. Space exploration and scientific breakthroughs are rocketing\, while a burgeoning space industry offers astronomical economic growth and workforce development opportunities globally.
