“The world must adjust to living with Covid-19” is a phrase becoming increasingly commonplace in mainstream media reporting of the continuing pandemic. Whilst perhaps reflecting the ongoing practical realities of Sars-Cov-2 some 26 months after the World Health Organization declared the disease a global pandemic, it is a phrase of little comfort to the millions who have lost relatives and friends, nor to those continuing to suffer from “Long Covid”, nor to those in remote locations and in less developed nations still awaiting vaccination.

Whether by design or circumstances, the space industry has become inextricably involved in the war in Ukraine, and/or the repercussions from it.  The launch industry is suffering from major supply issues, joint ventures and partnerships have been canceled.  Both of these will have a long-term impact, changing the structure of the industry.  In complete contrast, satellites are making a major contribution not only to our understanding of what is happening, but also by providing much needed help to Ukrainian refugees.

In 1965, the first commercial communications satellite had been launched, and a few years later American scientists, technicians, and astronauts pushed humanity’s frontier by landing on the surface of the Moon.
