We initiate the discussion by considering the role of space technology in supporting the achievement of the SDGs and delve into various topics. These include the enhancement of our environmental detection capabilities through space weather forecasting, the potential for a business dedicated to tackling the issue of space debris, and the development of mobility technologies on other planets to aid in sustainable city and community building.

We invite you to join us in this exciting discourse as we discuss the potential of space technologies in driving progress towards a future where space is for all of us.
