Original: Space manufacturing: a new industrial paradigm

Space manufacturing — producing materials, components and products in orbit rather than on Earth — is being framed as a new industrial paradigm. Discussions highlight how falling launch costs and growing commercial interest could shift heavy or delicate production, such as fibre optics, semiconductors and pharmaceuticals, off the planet. Commenters are weighing the economic promise against questions of regulation, sustainability and space debris.

Why now: Growing commercial and policy interest in producing goods in orbit has put space manufacturing back in the spotlight.
