London, UK, May 26, 2022--“The world must adjust to living with Covid-19” is a phrase becoming increasingly commonplace in mainstream media reporting of the continuing pandemic.

London, UK, May 5, 2022--"Space…The final frontier.” When we first heard these words spoken by the ‘Star Trek’ actor William Shatner as Captain James Tiberius Kirk of USS Enterprise on television in 1966, space was indeed thought of as humankind’s final frontier. Several years before, the USSR had taken humanity’s radio technology into this frontier with Sputnik-1. In 1965, the first commercial communications satellite had been launched, and a few years later American scientists, technicians, and astronauts pushed humanity’s frontier by landing on the surface of the Moon.
