Planet Beyond Podcast
Returning to the moon
The commercial space sector has doubled over the past decade and is set to triple in the next 20 years. NASA’s Artemis I marks a new era in lunar missions, joined by private companies making space more collaborative and cost-effective.
In this archive episode, first aired in November 2022, we dive into Intuitive Machines' historic soft lunar landing in February 2024, and Australia's SpAARC facility supporting missions remotely.
As space climbs higher on national agendas, the UK government and European Space Agency continue to invest heavily. Fugro’s contributions in Geo-data, space domain awareness, and remote operations spotlight how subsea expertise now reaches the stars.
