    The Business and Future of Space Exploration

    Today in San Jose, California - the NewSpace Conference begins. It’s a gathering of big and small companies interested in going to space and picking up where NASA left off with the end of the space shuttle program. We’re going to talk about what this means for science and exploration and find out who really governs deep space.
