We connect developments in space with our everyday life on earth. How does trash in orbit impact planes and ships on earth? What influence do rocket launches have on national sovereignty?  Why is modern agriculture unthinkable without satellites? Could controll over orbits define the outcome of a war? We are not looking at the technological details, but bring a European and democratic view on developments that that influence our life's but are hidden in the darkness of space. 

Your hots are Valerie Chartrain, a future researcher from France, and Niklas Nienass, a space lawyer from Germany. ]]>enPoliticsMusic: Max via Pixabayhttps://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/3b0fc9e69e726ff85f6518a6bd4d4774.jpghttps://www.spreaker.com/podcast/space-power-people--6949682Wed, 16 Sep 2026 07:03:03 +0000Valerie Chartrain and Niklas NienaßValerie Chartrain and Niklas Nienaßspacepowerpeople@gmail.comSpace, Power, People - A citizen's guide to democracy in orbit.
