Ariel Ekblaw joins space innovation panel at LiveWIRED
Moderated by Ramin Skibba, the panel was part of WIRED’s 30th Anniversary event: Exploring technology’s impact on our past, present, and future—and digging into solutions and an optimistic vision for the next 30 years.
Dive into the heart of the booming space market, approaching $500 billion today and set to double by 2030. The new space race isn’t without challenges, however. With growing investment in commercial spaceflight and new entries into the multinational space-travel family, we can expect more launches, more space junk, more talk about exploiting resources—and less talk about the future of humanity. Moderated by WIRED’s Ramin Skibba, the panel explores the crucial technologies that could propel humanity to the moon and beyond, as we confront the imminent future of space travel head-on.
