Space & Satellite Professionals International (SSPI) has released Mission to the Future, the organization's newest Better Satellite World video.

The video describes how the space and satellite industry of today is laying the foundations for the space economy of the future and beginning to extend the vast value that its technologies bring to Earth far beyond its air and warmth.

Space and satellite companies are working every day to find cheaper and more reliable ways to go to space and return, to deliver valuable services to Earth, and to explore for resources beyond our atmosphere. Today, someone starting a career can help make that happen, and someone starting school tomorrow could wind up working in a new space economy.

Executive Director Robert Bell said most Better Satellite World videos tell the story of space and satellite technology benefiting our lives on Earth today — Mission to the Future puts that story into a larger context: how we will preserve and extend human life beyond this fragile planet and tap opportunities for growth we are just beginning to imagine.
