The cost of getting mass into space is tumbling. The economic opportunities of being in space are multiplying. Where does this leave Britain?
Alas, our country holds the ignominious record of being the only country to get rid of a vertical-launch space programme. But we're turning the situation around – and could take advantage of the changing circumstance by embarking on an exciting megaproject.
Our second guest, Peter Hague, is a leading space blogger. His idea? Building a super spaceport – one that's big enough to accommodate Starship, which is SpaceX's gamechanging flagship.
We discuss the practicalities of the super spaceport, and what its construction could do for Britain.
