About

What happens when space becomes the new economic frontier? Who controls the resources beyond our atmosphere? How will the coming space revolution transform life on Earth?

What happens above our heads is already shaping the future below. As the new space race accelerates, driven by private enterprise, global competition, and revolutionary technology, the stakes have never been higher. Space is no longer just about exploration; it’s about security, sustainability, communication, and control.

Join astronaut, bestselling author, and advisor Chris Hadfield for a gripping journey through the fast-changing world of space innovation. Drawing on his work with NASA, SpaceX, world governments, and King Charles III's Astra Carta initiative, Chris explores how lunar missions, satellite mega-constellations, and the $2 trillion space economy are transforming our planet's future.

Expect awe-inspiring visuals, rare behind-the-scenes insights, and a few musical interludes along the way, plus your chance to ask Chris your own burning questions in a live audience Q&A.

This is a unique opportunity to explore the new space age with one of its most trusted voices and return with your perspective forever changed.
