When Alice Carruth's voice first graced the airwaves with the T-Minus Space Daily podcast, little did she know it would skyrocket in popularity, much like the industry she meticulously reports on. Her journey from quiet beginnings to producing daily space news captures the essence of our latest conversation, where she captivates us with tales of satellites weaving through our day-to-day lives and private sector giants like SpaceX charting new courses for humanity. 

Embark on a personal voyage with me as I recount my transition from television production to the vibrant space communications arena, all while navigating life's unexpected turns from the UK to New Mexico. We delve into the rich space heritage of my new home and how the right place at the right time led to a thriving career at Spaceport America. Alice and I reflect on the serendipitous moments that can define our professional journeys and why New Mexico has become a beacon for space industry mavens and startup founders alike.

This is a discussion that orbits around the crucial role of space in global development and personal empowerment – one that will leave you contemplating the stars and our place among them.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• Exploring the global impact of space

• New Mexico space career journey

• Space entrepreneurship and communication

• Importance of communication in startups

• Shaping a better future through space
