This episode is part of our Karman mini-series, produced in collaboration with the Karman Project. Every year, the Karman Project selects 15 fellows from around the world to foster trust, cooperation, and dialogue between global leaders in space.


Today’s guest is Trent Tresch, the founding director of the University of Arizona Center for Human Space Exploration. Editor-in-Chief Dr Emma Gatti and Trent discussed their passion for space and the challenges they face in the industry. Trent, a former social science scholar, explains with compelling enthusiasm his fascination with extreme environments and his goal of seeing humans living and working in space. His active engagement with students not from the industry is a testament to his effort to make Space a place everyone can contribute to.

Today, accelerated access to space provides unprecedented opportunities for #advertising stunts and viral marketing. Some campaigns raise ethical, environmental, and regulatory concerns, while others champion sustainability.
