Ever since their inception, space activities have been innovative, but not driven by commercial considerations that is, until the end of the Cold War, when the commercialization of space escalated. As a result, the direction of the innovation changed in order to leverage new business opportunities, which reached a turning point in the 2010s. This book discusses the developmental trends of the world space sector in detail, by analyzing their long-term evolution, and studying why this innovative industry sometimes experiences technological and organizational delays. Innovation Trends in the Space Industry also provides a framework to diagnose more accurately the potential technological threats that are currently faced by existing space tech manufacturers. Moreover, this book, with an economic perspective, provides a close examination of the space sector. It also contributes to enriching innovation management theory by leading us to better understand industry emergence shaped by customers, to reinterpret technological and organizational inertia in high technology activities, and to refine disruptive innovation trends.

This book presents the first comprehensive history of innovation at NASA, bringing together experts in the field to illuminate how public-private and international partnerships have fueled new ways of exploring space since the beginning of space travel itself. Twelve case studies trace the messy, risky history of such partnerships, exploring the role of AT&T in the early development of satellite technology, the connections between the Apollo program and Silicon Valley, the rise of SpaceX, and more. Some of these projects have succeeded, and some have failed; all have challenged conventional methods of doing the public’s business in space. Together, these essays offer new insights into how innovation happens, with invaluable lessons for policymakers, investors, economists, and members of the space community.

In an era of fast-paced technological developments, innovation processes are critical for the evolution of societies through developing new technologies. University research centers are among the settings in which innovation processes take place. The numbers of university research centers and the workspaces provided for them have increased significantly in the second half of twentieth century. Innovation research has indicated that information consumption is the major resource for facilitating innovation. Among various information resources used for information consumption, face-to-face technical consultations are the most important information resources. Research in design disciplines has shown that spatial organization of workspaces can affect human encounters. However, how the spatial organization of workspaces in university research centers influence encounters among researchers and therefore innovation process outcomes have not been studied. This study is an inquiry into the effects of spatial organization on innovation process outcomes. Within a multiple case study research design, six university research centers were selected to study the relationships between the spaces occupied, information consumption indicators, and innovation process outcomes. An activity log and a follow-up survey were the instruments used for data collection. The results of the study indicated that the spatial organization of university research centers significantly affected patterns of space use for face-to-face technical consultation, technical consultation networks, information consumption patterns, and innovation process outcomes. Unprogrammed encounters among researchers were the highest utilized type of technical consultations. Configurational accessibility of spaces, shorter walking distances and informal common spaces facilitated unprogrammed encounters among researchers in the six selected university research centers. University research centers that had intact territories wi.

The New Space industry, characterized by the emergence of private companies and start-ups developing innovative space technologies and services, is rapidly transforming the global space landscape. Sweden, with its strong technological capabilities and entrepreneurial spirit, is well-positioned to play a leading role in this new era of space exploration. However, the New Space industry is also highly competitive, and Swedish companies need to be able to innovate quickly and efficiently to succeed. Innovation ecosystems, which are networks of interconnected actors that collaborate to develop and commercialize new technologies, can play a vital role in supporting Swedish New Space companies. This chapter examines the importance of innovation ecosystems in the New Space industry from a Swedish perspective. It begins by providing an overview of the New Space industry and its key trends. It then discusses the role of innovation ecosystems in supporting innovation and growth in the New Space industry. Finally, it examines the Swedish space innovation ecosystem and identifies specific opportunities and challenges for Swedish New Space companies. The Importance of Innovation Ecosystems in the New Space Industry Innovation ecosystems are important for the New Space industry for a number of reasons. First, they provide access to a wide range of resources, including capital, expertise, and infrastructure. This is important for New Space companies, which often have limited resources of their own. Second, innovation ecosystems facilitate collaboration and knowledge sharing. This is essential for the development of new technologies, which often require expertise from multiple disciplines. Third, innovation ecosystems can help to reduce the risk associated with innovation. This is important for New Space companies, which are operating in a rapidly changing and competitive environment. The Swedish Space Innovation Ecosystem The Swedish space innovation ecosystem is relatively strong, with a number of well-established companies and research institutions. However, there are also some challenges that need to be addressed to support the growth of Swedish New Space companies. One challenge is that the Swedish space innovation ecosystem is fragmented. There are a number of different actors involved in the space industry, but they are not always well-connected. This can make it difficult for New Space companies to access the resources and support they need. Another challenge is that the Swedish space innovation ecosystem is relatively small. This limits the pool of potential collaborators and investors

FOREWORD By Bruce McCandless II Former NASA Astronaut This volume is the fifth in the series on contemporary space topics by the Aerospace Technology Working Group with support from Secure World Foundation, the International Space University, and the International Institute of Space Commerce. It deals principally with the topic of sustainability of space operations. In all fields of challenging endeavor actually accomplishing an objective (e.g., putting a satellite into orbit) comes first, followed by exploitation or commercialization, and lastly by a realization that the resource is finite. Such "finite-ness" may come from considerations of pollution (e.g., space debris, propulsion effluent) or of actual limitations on the availability of the resource (e.g., crowding of Geostationary Earth Orbit - GEO). Both of these topics are among those discussed in detail in this volume. Developing countries, in particular, may find such considerations too burdensome, and this begs the need for regulation to avoid the classic "Tragedy of the Commons" situation. In the case of orbital debris we have collectively arrived at a point where tens of millions of tiny pieces of debris are currently in orbit, decaying at diverse rates in a situation where a single flake of paint has been demonstrated to be capable of causing damage when impacting at high relative velocities. At the other end of the spectrum, defunct satellites (e.g., ESA's Envisat) present discrete problems worthy of individual retrieval/disposal efforts but fraught with complications arising from ownership to potentially still effective ITAR constraints on access to onboard technology. And, of course, the managers of the International Space Station are absolutely paranoid about higher altitude orbital debris eventually decaying to and ultimately impacting their very large orbiting facility. While space may realistically be dubbed "infinite," very specific orbits, or sets of orbits, have practical capacity limits. In GEO, for example, spacing of satellites along it are subject to constraints arising from use of the same radio frequency spectra and the size of ground based antennas required to spatially discriminate between adjacent satellites. In popular high inclination sun-synchronous Earth imaging orbits, these all converge near the poles, creating a traffic management concern arising from the risk of collision. The subject of "green propellants" is treated from several aspects. The Liquid Oxygen / Liquid Hydrogen system, while yielding only water vapor from combustion, may have a significant carbon footprint associated with the manufacture of the LH2 from methane or methanol. Aluminum oxide, an exhaust product of common solid propellant boosters is generally regarded as inert, but the inhalation of fine particles of it can cause pulmonary fibrosis or other lung damage in humans. Additionally the need for oxidizer depletion shutdown in the family of hydrazine/oxidizer booster stages results in significant quantities of UDMH (for example) being dispersed upon impact of the early stages. No Foreword can do adequate justice to the carefully developed material within the publication itself. For a detailed and thought provoking coverage of the principal topics associated with the sustainability of space operations, this book is highly recommended, authoritative, and "a good read."
