Despite multiple attempts to foster commercial activities in the field of space exploration, for decades the domain largely continued to be funded and led by governments in the form of national and international programmes. However, the situation changed with the retirement of the Space Shuttle and the introduction of NASAs Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (COTS) programme, which employed an innovative procurement scheme based on competitive, performance-based, fixed-price milestones. The success of this programme marked an important milestone in the evolution of the relationship between government and industry. The growing opportunities for private actors to make more prominent contributions to space exploration also lie in the "New Space" ecosystem, a sectoral transformation characterised by a substantial increase in private investment and the emergence of commercial efforts to develop disruptive concepts and address new markets. 000891293 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on June 28, 2019). 000891293 650_0 $$aSpace industrialization. 000891293 651_0 $$aOuter space$$xExploration. 000891293 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aIacomino, Clelia$$tCommercial Space Exploration : Potential Contributions of Private Actors to Space Exploration Programmes$$dCham : Springer,c2019$$z9783030157500 000891293 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in applied sciences and technology. 000891293 852__ $$bebk 000891293 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-15751-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000891293 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:891293$$pGLOBAL_SET 000891293 980__ $$aEBOOK 000891293 980__ $$aBIB 000891293 982__ $$aEbook 000891293 983__ $$aOnline 000891293 994__ $$a92$$bISE
