As part of the CSIS Commentary Series, "Space in Focus: Key Issues for the Next Administration," the piece "The Commercial Space Imperative" by our CEO Mandy Vaughn, alongside Douglas Loverro and Stephen Kitay, examines the U.S. government’s contrasting approaches to commercial space launch and remote sensing. While launch policy thrived with government support, remote sensing faced challenges due to restrictive practices. They advocate for greater integration of commercial capabilities to strengthen U.S. space leadership and enhance national security resilience. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/g4whe5MZ

The latest NSSA SpaceTime episode features an important discussion with our CEO Mandy Vaughn, General (ret) Ellen Pawlikowski, and the Honorable Jeffrey K. Harris.

At the International Astronautical Congress 2024 in Milan, our CEO, Mandy Vaughn, who serves as Chair of the STEM, Education, Diversity & Inclusion Subcommittee within the National Space Council’s Users' Advisory Group (UAG), along with other esteemed UAG members and leaders in the industry, provided an update on the UAG’s ongoing efforts. The panel discussed key focus areas such as space exploration, economic development, climate and societal benefits, STEM education, and national security, while presenting recommendations aimed at driving progress and shaping the future of the space sector.

Big #SpaceBeach news: For the first time, the National Space Council’s User Advisory Group met in California today—and we brought them here to Long Beach. They typically meet at the White House with VP Harris as chair, and today we got to show them why our city is home to one of America’s fastest-growing space clusters. This is a big deal! Thank you to NSC UAG Executive Member Mandy Vaughn, Deputy Director of the Policy & Strategic Comms Division with NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration SCaN Program James J. Miller, the Port of Long Beach, and the other partners for joining me this afternoon to talk Space Beach, STEM education, and more. And, special thanks to Dr. Sian Proctor—an astronaut and the first woman of color to pilot a spacecraft—for signing a copy of her coloring book for my daughters. They’re going to be incredibly inspired.

Yesterday, the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) Aerospace Security Project (ASP), in collaboration with the Taylor Geospatial Institute, Taylor Geospatial Engine, and the United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation (USGIF), launched their report, Gold Rush: The 2024 Commercial Remote Sensing Global Rankings. This important event brought together government and industry experts to discuss the report's findings, providing valuable perspectives on the challenges and opportunities ahead. Co-authored by our Chief Strategy Officer, David Gauthier, along with Kari Bingen and Madeleine Chang, the study explores the increasing competition in satellite remote sensing and its strategic implications for the U.S., raising critical questions about how to maintain a competitive edge in this vital sector and keep the U.S. private sector at the forefront of global innovation.
