NASA is doing an amazing job of n exploration of space and doing continuous research to open up different avenues for transforming space into new human habitats. LEO is the next platform for business and commerce opportunities. These businesses and commerce activities have given greater push to space exploration and led space based invest to reach all times high ie $470 Bn in 2021-2022. This huge businesses, exploration and research activities is going to further compounded as it gets closer to 2030. This requires huge trained work force to be readily available for employment by 2030 when human habitats at the Moonnand the Mars are likely to be ready. Richard Branson Virgin Galactic will be fully functional etc. Let us work together with NASA to further augment its to promote awareness about education in the field of Space Science and Soace technology. The best measures of awareness can be teaching of space science and space technology as one of the mainstream science subjects. Let us work together with NASA for such a noble mission to empower youth with new skill set to work n live in space. Provision of Trained n skilled manpower to meet huge needs of massively growing global industry has become a global challenge, n it must be met by cutting joint ventures between the global technology giants like NASA, Lockheed Martin, XSpace, Virgin Galactic to generously support and patronise SPACE STEMS COMPANIES like SPACEVERSE https://lnkd.in/dY3UviNw which has designed its unique, highly innovative, collaborative and extremely immersive TEACHING TOOL to bring Space experience direct to the CLASSROOM teaching learning environment by using - a Combo of VR & AI technologies, which is supported by a Simulation and a BOT called Spacey which answers to the questions of students as part of teaching methodologies. - SpaceVerse technology directly n instantaneously takes the students to virtually simulated microgravity environment at the Moon and the Mars and their learning is augmented about space science in a much faster, quicker and most advanced way unlike the traditional teaching methodologies. Such innovative and creative solutions as offered by SPACEVERSE May enable the GLOBAL STEM leaders led by NASA STEM to meet future needs of huge volume of trained HR to work n live in the upcoming Global Space Industry worth of 4 Tn $ especially the establishment of new human habitats at the Moon n the Mars by 2030 n beyond as predicted by global think tank. NASA must support and fund all start ups like SpaceVerse https://lnkd.in/dmdFB8Fh and it’s CEO & Founder Maria Bruna

Big News for the U.S. Space Sector! The U.S. Department of Commerce just announced three major steps aimed at easing export restrictions on satellite and space-related technologies. This strategic move opens up new international sales opportunities for American space companies, boosting industry leaders like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and SpaceX. These changes, introduced by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), will not only empower U.S. businesses to thrive in the global space market but also strengthen international partnerships with allied nations—all while maintaining a focus on national security. This is a huge win for innovation and the future of space exploration!

This week, we're spotlighting an important move by the Bureau of Industry and Security-U.S. Department of Commerce(BIS) to update space-related export controls. In a strategic effort led by the National Space Council and Vice President Kamala Harris, BIS released three new rules aimed at ensuring the U.S. remains at the forefront of space innovation while safeguarding national security. These regulatory updates—one Final Rule, one Interim Final Rule, and one Proposed Rule—address critical elements of the evolving space industry. Notably, they streamline export control restrictions on certain spacecraft components and technologies for key allies such as Australia, Canada, and the UK, while promoting collaboration through NASA programs and other international partnerships. By removing unnecessary barriers and allowing for greater global cooperation, the U.S. is taking decisive steps to maintain its leadership in space. However, the balance between innovation and security remains vital, with BIS maintaining strict controls on sensitive technologies, particularly those involving critical defense capabilities. Why is this important for trade compliance? For those working in the aerospace or technology sectors, staying informed on these updates is crucial. These changes reduce licensing requirements for less sensitive items and they also move some items from the ITAR to the EAR, making it easier for U.S. companies to export to trusted allies. But they also underscore the need for robust compliance processes to ensure that these relaxed controls do not open up opportunities for adversaries to access sensitive technologies. As always, staying updated on such developments helps companies avoid disruptions and ensures continued compliance with U.S. export regulations. The evolving landscape of space-related export controls presents opportunities and challenges, and it’s essential to be proactive in understanding how these changes impact your business. For further details, visit the BIS website or contact us to discuss how these changes might affect your export strategy. Reach out at info@amalietc.com or visit www.amalietc.com for guidance.   To find the original press release you can visit the BIS website here: https://lnkd.in/exB3quCi #TuesdayTradeThought #TradeCompliance #ExportControls #BIS #Aerospace #Technology #SpaceInnovation #InternationalTrade

Been doing quite a lot of research and on memorial day I would like to share something particularly interesting I have found. Some of the largest proponents of American Dynamism are not found on the coast of California, rather in cities like Chicago and Houston. As defined by A16Z, American Dynamism: The practice invests in founders and companies that support the (#US) national interest: aerospace, defense, public safety, education, housing, supply chain, industrials, and manufacturing. ^ Read big organizations like: Boeing, NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Lockheed Martin, Accenture, Motorola Solutions Inc, W. W. Grainger, Follett, State Farm, Caterpillar Inc., ADM, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Sysco Corporation, USG Corporation, and 3M. Also, startups like: Axiom Space, Workrise, ICON, Hypergiant Industries, Aurora Innovation, Network Perception, Level Ex, Everspring, Kin Insurance, and M1 Finance. (did I miss any? tag them below) #Chicago and #Houston rank as the 3rd and 4th most populous cities in the US with #Phoenix, #Philadelphia, and #SanAntonio coming in behind. If you haven't read Rise of the Rest by Steve Case, now might be the time to catch up. The SxSWxMW regions are experiencing unprecedented growth. #south #southwest #midwest #unitedstates #useconomy #texas #illinois #arizona #a16z #americandynamism #warneverchanges

"If there is any lesson on competitiveness to be learnt when juxtaposing ARIANESPACE-SpaceX and Airbus-Boeing parallel yet opposing stories, it is not about subsidising existing corporate leviathans with more industrial policy. It is in fact about creating the right starting conditions for innovation to proliferate." ✍️ Andrea Dugo on EU-US competition in the aerospace industry. Read his new blog ➡ https://lnkd.in/d3TS7R-d
