#ICYMI: I was recently asked to chair a Space Sustainability Task Force with the AIAA , and we're off to a brilliant start. We’ve already had about 50 volunteers join from all around the world! One key question we’re exploring: How can we incorporate the wisdom of Indigenous and traditional ecological knowledge into our approach to space sustainability? What does it really mean to be a steward of our space environment, and how do we apply those principles to keep space sustainable for future generations? I’m really looking forward to diving into this work and sharing the journey with you all. Booya! 🤙🏾 https://lnkd.in/eyg5vApc #SpaceSustainability #TaskForce #aiaa #sustainability
