Earth observation is evolving as users demand faster decisions, tighter workflows and more dependable data. Satellogic VP of Space Systems Luciano Giesso shares how these rising expectations are reshaping EO missions, influencing everything from how organizations approach responsiveness to how they define truly trusted insights.

As humanity pushes toward sustained activity beyond Earth, legal and operational questions around resource extraction, safety, and behavior in shared environments are coming to the forefront. Hon. Peter Beshar, former Air Force and Space Force General Counsel, joins Constellations to unpack how long‑standing treaties intersect with modern lunar ambitions, what safeguards can prevent gray‑zone behavior and how nations can build trust as more actors crowd the space domain.

Financing in the space industry is often overlooked, yet a critical aspect to growth within the industry. Joining Constellations is Phaedra Chrousos and Max Yergan of SLI Aerospace, pioneering aerospace asset leasing to help manufacturers and operators finance the satellites, ground infrastructure and other space assets they need without the burden of large upfront investments. In this episode, Phaedra and Max will discuss how innovative financing models could accelerate the commercialization of space and reshape the economics of the industry for years to come.
