Engineering Rapidly Reusable Rockets

The space industry is evolving rapidly, with the cost of launching payloads to orbit dropping significantly. But who's investing in this sector, and how will it evolve?

In this episode, we delve into the transformative journey of the satellite industry with Andy Lapsa, co-founder of Stoke Space. With over a decade of experience at Blue Origin, Andy is now at the forefront of sustainable space travel, pioneering fully reusable rockets.

Don’t forget to check out Part 1 in this mini series, where we explore the public and private players in space with John Gedmark from Astranis.
