Emerging Technologies
Currently orbital space travel is a hazardous environment with the need for a small number of people to become specialised in a wide range of skills, however as populations increase to the general public, the need to be able to design, fabricate and operate a wide range of technically advanced equipment becomes essential. Key technologies are emerging in support of this, not only taking care of the physical safety of both passengers and vessels; but also addressing their psychological needs for connectedness during a long journey.
3D Printing
Remote manufacturing of every day and bespoke items without the need for complex production facilities.
Robotics
Physical automation of hazardous or repititive tasks where a broad set of expert skills can be provided via robotics to support a small population or workforce
Virtual / Augmented Reality
Providing humans with AI-driven augmented tools to assist in complex tasks, or to provide virtual environments to alleviate space-bound ‘cabin fever’
Sensory Design
Giving spacefarers familiar earth-like sensations in confined environments to promote feelings of well-being
Environment & Hygiene
Providing a healthy and hygienic environment in the harsh conditions of space
The Commercial Argument for Space
A European union report stated that in 2017 the global space economy reached a size of £261 billion and predicted that space tourism, energy, mining, processing and assembly would become important business areas for investment. More recently
UBS, an international wealth and investment fund stated in an article that over the next 10 years high speed travel via outer space will represent an annual market of at least $20 billion and compete with long-distance airline flights. UBS expects the broader space industry, which is worth about $400 billion today, will double to $805 billion by 2030.
This is mirrored by the exponential growth in the number of commercial space launches authorised by the Federal Aviation Authority which is seeing year on year growth mirroring the adoption of other key technologies such as the home computer, mobile phone and the internet.
The UK Space Agency embarked on the National Space Technology Programme, Phase 2 in 2018, and already developed 7 patent applications
The UK is also supporting international efforts to return humans to the Moon by to building components of the Lunar Gateway – a new space station that will orbit the Moon and provide a key stepping stone for human and robotic expeditions to the lunar surface.
