The space race is no longer just about science for science’s sake; today, private companies see tangible investment opportunity in the great void. But before they can capture it, they must solve one problem: the prohibitively high cost of getting there. We talk to industry leaders and an investment expert about reusable spacecrafts, scramjets, and hypersonics—technologies that could revolutionize space travel and open up access to the final frontier. This is The Future According to Now, a podcast from Atlantic Re:think, the branded content studio at The Atlantic, and Fidelity Investments, with production support from At Will Media.
