Space as a domain crosses all geopolitical borders which is why solutions from space to Earth must be international and sustainable over the long-term. “Responsible Space” was the theme of this year’s International Astronautical Congress (IAC) held in Milan, Italy. The Space Policy Show’s Colleen Stover, Center for Space Policy & Strategy, went on-location to learn more. In this episode we discuss what space sustainability means from different perspectives, how experts are working to predict orbital viability with metrics, and about operational and economic challenges to the future of servicing and moving satellites in orbit. Featuring:
· Alvin Drew, former US astronaut and NASA Director Space Sustainability, talking to Marlon Sorge, Aerospace Corporation Technical Fellow and Director of Aerospace’s Center for Orbital and Reentry Debris Studies (CORDS).
· Dr Francesca Letizia, European Space Agency (ESA) and Prof Camilla Colombo, Politecnico di Milano University Italy, talking to Gregory Henning, Aerospace Corporation Manager of Debris & Disposal.
· Maxime Puteaux, Euroconsult Paris and Akhil Gujral, Aerospace Corporation General Manager of Launch Missiles and Mobility, talking to Colleen Stover, CSPS.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
