Those Space People

Helen draws parallels between maritime law and space law and gives a detailed perspective on the space law landscape. She also talks about how established and emerging space actors approach space policy and space sustainability differently. Helen shares her vision of newspace in the next few decades and how startups from across the world are changing the space landscape. She also talks about the opportunities offered by UAE for engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs and other professionals. Having a space law degree is surprisingly not the biggest pre-requisite to kick-start a career in space law!
