In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of space freight logistics. Companies such as Elon Musk’s SpaceX and Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin are leading the charge in this new frontier. As these companies and others like Rocket Lab make space more accessible, the cost of launching payloads to Low Earth Orbit (LEO) has significantly decreased. However, the industry still faces numerous economic, regulatory, and technological challenges. Join us as we explore the current landscape of space freight, including the cost efficiencies achieved by reusable rockets, the complex regulatory environment, and the ongoing issue of space debris. We'll also discuss the feasibility of deep-space missions, the vulnerabilities in the supply chain, and potential strategies for making space freight more accessible. Whether you're a logistics professional or just curious about the future of space travel, this episode offers a realistic perspective on the possibilities and challenges of space freight logistics
