SUMMARY:Private Actors in Orbit: Structural Power in der Commanding Heights of Space
DESCRIPTION:with Dr. Marieluna Frank\, IQIB – Institut für qualifizierende Innovationsforschung und -beratung GmbH \nThis event explores the role of private actors in key space infrastructure\, and the emergence of new forms of structural power as a result. The focus is on companies that gain economic significance and can create political and societal dependencies by launching satellite networks\, capabilities\, data infrastructures or other strategically relevant systems. The discussion will explore how private space infrastructure becomes a resource for power politics\, the consequences for states’ scope for action\, and the challenges this poses for governance\, regulation\, and the international order. This event is intended for anyone interested in the relationship between space travel\, power and private-sector infrastructure.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Astropolitics
DESCRIPTION:with Raphael Hujeirat\, Chair of ASTRA Bonn \nThis event takes the form of a presentation followed by a Q&A session. It offers a basic introduction to astropolitics\, exploring why space has become an increasingly important arena for political and strategic action. The presentation will focus on the growing significance of space travel for security\, the economy\, communication\, and state capacity. It will also address the question of why developments in space are no longer merely technical or scientific matters. Key state and private actors\, their interests and objectives\, and current dynamics of competition\, power and order in space will be examined. The event is particularly aimed at those wishing to gain an initial\, solid understanding of the political and strategic dimensions of space travel.
