These range from telecommunications and Radio and TV broadcasting to global positioning, from search and rescue alerts to meteorological observations, from environment monitoring and resources mapping to support to the management of disaster situations. The rapid development of satellite based applications over the last 30 years is the foundation of a wider interest for space activities worldwide, particularly in developing countries. It is the basis for a new industry, the "space services" industry, which gradually has overpassed the size of the space manufacturing industry. Connecting Space People 29
