🌍✈️ We've recently crossed the globe to discuss on-orbit servicing and the opportunities life extension services and satellite refueling can unlock. First stop: Vietnam, where we had the privilege of meeting with leaders from the Ministry of Science and Technology of Vietnam. It was an honor exploring how space sustainability can support Vietnam's broader sustainability goals. From there, we flew to Adelaide for the 17th Australian Space Forum! We engaged with the Australian space community and connected with VIPs such as the Korean delegation, Maj Gen Steve Butow from the USAF, and Lt Gen (USAF RET.) Larry James, Strategic Advisor at SmartSat. Grateful for the chance to collaborate across continents to shape the future of space!
