How to Invest in the Space Economy with Andrew Chanin and Micah Walter-Range

<p>You've heard us speak <a href="https://7investing.com/articles/launching-the-space-economy-with-rocket-lab-ceo-peter-beck-and-cfo-adam-spice/">quite a bit recently</a> about the space economy, and that's for good reason. The final frontier is opening up a trillion-dollar commercial opportunity for ambitious entrepreneurs to launch new businesses into.</p> <p>Some companies are deriving revenue directly as the picks-and-shovel providers -- building the rockets, satellites, or space-related hardware and infrastructure. Others are harnessing the power of satellite-based technology -- using PNT for precision timing or GPS for precision navigation.

Or are there less-obvious metrics that we should be paying more attention to?</p> <p>To answer those questions, we've brought in two experts who are actively investing in outer space.
