 ugh to design and testing\, before discussing operations and end-of-life. 
 Along the way\, he will explore some of the broader issues in the space in
 dustry today including space debris\, radio licensing and the impact of ge
 opolitical change.\n\nFull details of the btalk are at:  https://www.meetu
