Emeline Pat Dahlstrom, co-founder of Space Limited and coordinator of the Global Space Enablers Network, breaks down how access to space is shifting from government-only to truly global. We trace the inflection point from smallsats (Planet) to today’s open satellite data, why ecosystem-building matters, and how countries and founders can plug in. Emily contrasts an “Elysium” outcome with a Star Trek vision, and shares practical ways students, operators, and policymakers can get involved now. If you care about earth-impacting applications (GPS/banking, climate, agriculture), this episode maps what’s coming next.
