Should the UK government prioritise economic growth and national security in its new space strategy?

The UK government is preparing to release a new space strategy providing a whole-of-government approach for civil, commercial and national security space activities. The strategy will focus on satellite communications, launch, space domain awareness, space sustainability, and in-space servicing and manufacturing. It aligns with a Ministry of Defence plan for additional investment of £3.18 billion through 2030 in satellite communications, intelligence and space control.
