Advances in technological capabilities helps humans to observe space technology better than ever before. The ancient past of the universe is caught in the web of modern information technology. By analyzing these data more new information is now known. On the one hand as the mystery is solved then new mysteries are gathering.

The space economy has changed the pace of life. Currently there is a huge investment in the space technology sector by public and private entrepreneurs around the world. The sector is of great interest to entrepreneurs as it is a major source of innovation and new economies. Space research is now playing a significant role in high-tech innovation in particular.

The space economy has already changed the way people live in the developed world. Gradually it will be able to bring about major changes in the world economy and people's lifestyle. From space tourism to space manufacturing the governments of different countries around the world are working together with private institutions. Also big companies including Google, Amazon, SpaceX are investing huge amounts in space research.

Which is contributing to the world's innovation and employment. Space technology basically refers to the technology used for various tasks in outer space (example - spacecraft operation, space observation etc.) beyond the boundaries of Earth. Space technology includes a wide variety of other technologies including spacecraft, satellites, space stations and orbital launch vehicles, deep space communications, in-space propulsion and support infrastructure equipment systems. The sky has no beginning and no end outside the earth. The beginning-endless sky is called space. There are many stars in space.

They move in an orderly manner in their own orbits at certain speeds. Some of them have lights and some don't. Moon, sun, planets, stars, comets, meteors, nebulas, pulsars, black dwarfs, black holes etc. are all there in space. This universe is made up of all of them. Recently the space technology has created a great interest of entrepreneurs in this sector.

As it is a new large source of innovation and economy. Space research is now playing a significant role in high-tech innovation in particular. In this era of modern information technology, space technology has become known as a sector with endless potential. Within the next decade, space science will become a key driver of technological innovation, global trade and economic progress. Space technology has now become a sector of great potential in the economy based on the various contexts of today. Meanwhile the continuous development of technology is making this requirement more and more essential.

Due to the development of reusable rockets, reduction in satellite launch costs, unprecedented advancements in technology etc. the space industry is constantly expanding rapidly at a massive rate. In addition to collecting various information including broadcasting, communication, weather, climate change, space has become a major means of nature protection and mineral resource exploration. Apart from this improving scientific research, achieving national glory and honor, friendship between different states, ensuring the future existence of people and developing military and strategic capabilities, etc. are playing a leading role in the expansion of space technology. As a result of this space science has now become space trade around the world. Both science and technology are a continuous and ongoing process. Science means positive change in thinking.

The development of new technologies for the welfare of mankind has carried forward that positive thought for ages. The future of the future world and its growth will depend on space technology. Satellite technology and space exploration will be the focus of sustained investment in the coming years. Apart from this space technology will be key to combating climate change. If everything in the cosmos including mankind, survives, it will continue to evolve, change and modernize to the extreme over the centuries. No one knows how big the universe is. No one knows the size or shape of the universe.

The universe has no beginning and no end. People are constantly discovering new information about the universe. Much of which still remains unknown. This unknown may remain unknown forever. Or with the passage of time these unknown mysteries will be revealed through new discoveries. Apart from research this technology has now become a great economic prospect as the competition to send satellites into space has started between major countries for military and political needs. Advances in technology are making this requirement even more imperative.

In addition to broadcasting, communication and meteorological data collection, space has become a major means of nature protection and mineral resource exploration. Which has really taken shape in space trade. In the near future, the development of space technology and the economy will have a wide spread.

Where it normally takes a lot of time to cross the world, modern space technology makes it possible to cross this world in less time with passenger vehicles sent into space. Meanwhile satellite communication is creating a global communication network around the world. As a result the vast majority of people in the world will have access to the Internet. Internet will also reach the areas especially in the remote areas where the necessary infrastructure is not available. Due to which great progress will be achieved in the field of education and health. Through broadband communication provided by satellite technology people from any part of the world can connect with the global economy very easily. Space-based navigation has also made it much easier to travel and ship goods from one city to another using drones.

Currently agricultural production has increased manifold based on images and information sent from satellites. With today's modern technology the farmers can understand when to apply pesticides or fertilizers and when to water. On the other hand, especially the space seeds that travel from Earth to space are several times more productive than other seeds. This has reduced the ripening time of some seed crops. Some seeds have increased disease resistance and some have increased yield several times. Basically nurturing space seeds actually changes in these seeds due to the special environment of space after the food grain seeds are taken from the earth to space.

Then those seeds are brought back to earth and planted in the new technology. Compared to traditional seeds this new types of food grains are produced from these seeds. Their quality is also very good. Fresh water is a major crisis for the world today. The location of water reserves is known through images and information sent through satellite technology. Also knowing where water and air pollution and desertification are occurring, action can be taken quickly.

On the other hand, to increase fish production, effective measures against illegal fishing can be taken through satellite monitoring. Wildlife and biodiversity can be saved from extinction by identifying the causes of nature and ecosystem destruction. And the positive use of these technologies will change the living standards of the people of the world and also play an important role in reducing economic inequality. Thus future space research will open up new possibilities for us.
