Space science is too complex for any one country to tackle alone.

As a new era of space exploration unfolds, we need more than just advanced technology. Global cooperation and free knowledge exchange - regardless of geopolitical divisions - will be key.

What counts as progress?

There’s growing consensus that #GDP alone can’t capture it. The UN’s #BeyondGDP push reflects a wider call for metrics that look at wellbeing more holistically.

Our paper explores how the HDI can evolve to meet that challenge: https://t.co/Cgc6iudyAH
