Why Europe is lagging behind in the spacetech race
But one that, unfortunately, many of us saw coming. So why has Europe had to turn to a US-based company? Id also argue that governments arent helping the situation. 40% off TNW Conference! Its a similar story in China, where government support totalled$12 billion. How did we get here? So, why have we fallen so far behind? In part, ESA suffers from regulations on geographic return. While its undoubtedly a step in the right direction, I would say this does not go far enough....
