“They can either control the standards and how they want to see technology unfold and products from the market, or they can let the market duke it out.” Yesterday, Jeff Thornburg spoke at Silicon Valley Space Week #SVSW about new satellite architecture and the need for #interoperability in the market. A special thank you to Debra Werner for attending the panel and quoting Jeff in her SpaceNews article! #PortalSpace #PortalSpaceSystems #Maneuverability #SatelliteInteroperability #SiliconValleySpaceWeek #SVSW #SatelliteArchitecture
