The talk will focus on how the space environment has changed from the Cold War to the Post Cold War Period with ideology and prestige taking a back seat, while space as critical infrastructure to a nation's economic prosperity becoming the main area of focus. In this particular emphasis, Asia is taking the lead with China setting the framework, Russia joining in, and several Asian space faring nations like Japan establishing national legislation to support space mining activities. ----------------------------------------------------- |
