Cost of space travel before reusable Rockets. A1

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-23 17:19:14 UTC

"The economic benefits of reusable launch vehicles are considerable. Using a reusable rocket over a traditional rocket can be up to 65% cheaper" (Para 12). 10/23/24

How do Reusable Rockets work A2

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-23 17:29:10 UTC

Rockets utilize new propulsive landing technology to land safely on Earth after delivering a payload to space. They also contain better manufacturing to assist with durability and protection from space's harsh environment. 10/23/24

Reusable Rockets Help the Environment A3

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-23 17:36:04 UTC

Reusable rockets are more environmentally friendly, reducing space debris, decreasing fuel consumption, and enabling hardware recycling. 10/23/24

Future plans A4

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-23 18:18:41 UTC

"This model promises to lower costs for missions like satellite deployment, resupply missions to the International Space Station (ISS), and missions to the Moon and Mars"(Para 15).

How satellites will help farming B1

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-24 17:06:17 UTC

Satellites can support agriculture through a method called precision farming. This technique utilizes data from satellites to determine the specific needs of fields, leading to more efficient and sustainable farming practices.

Other information about satellites B2

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-24 17:13:10 UTC

"The knowledge gained from these processes can help farmers better understand a range of farming issues, such as: areas in need of more or less irrigation; where their livestock roam; which fertilizer to use, and where; the impact of new weather patterns; and so much more." (para 5)

Farmers seeing benefits from the satellite farming B3

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-25 16:08:23 UTC

"that farmers using the technology noticed reduced costs and increased quality and volume of output" (para 8). 10/25/24

Space tourism A5

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-25 16:15:23 UTC

Blue Origin is a company that develops reusable rockets for industries such as space tourism. 10/25/24

Growth 10/28/24 C1

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-28 16:20:15 UTC

The space economy is projected to nearly triple over the next 12 years, increasing from $630 billion to $1.8 trillion.

Satellites growth for other industries revenue 10/28/24 C2

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-28 17:09:21 UTC

The remarkable growth in the space industry can largely be attributed to companies increasingly harnessing satellite signals to enhance their operations.

Amount of satellites launched C3

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-28 17:16:43 UTC

"The number of satellites launched per year has grown at a cumulative annual rate of above 50% from 2019 to 2023" (Page 5).

Helping the world 10/28/24 C4

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-28 17:25:41 UTC

Space plays a significant economic role and helps address global challenges such as climate change, disaster monitoring, and worldwide prosperity.

growth of the space industry 10/28/24 (Hakamada as cited in, "article name" Page 15) C5

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-28 17:35:25 UTC

"There is no doubt that the expansion of space-based infrastructure in the next decade will contribute to many important economic activities on Earth. As infrastructure around the Earth expands, the ecosystem in space will expand to include the Moon, cis-lunar space and beyond, enabling access to deep space and space resources."

Takeshi Hakamada, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, ispace

Internet 10/29/24 C6

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-29 16:03:20 UTC

As the world uses more mobile devices, greater satellite infrastructure is required to support the devices' internet features and GPS. The demand for data is expected to increase by 60% in the coming years.

Space environment 10/29/24 C7

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-29 17:46:21 UTC

Satellite servicing on-site will become common in the coming years. This will allow satellites to be cleaned, refueled, and upgraded, extending their lifespan while reducing space waste.

space crowdness 10/29/24 D1

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-30 02:00:39 UTC

"It’s expected in the near future, as many as 20,000 additional satellites will be put into space. Some simple space situational awareness says space is about to get very crowded" para 2

Space not slowing down D2

ianhanson3 — 2024-10-30 02:03:27 UTC

"Even though this debris-filled space continues to be an issue, it’s not slowing down the movement to launch more into space." 10/29/24 para 9
