Though satellites are now used by a wide array of entertainment, communications, and information technologies, from radio stations to GPS devices, the business of making, launching, and maintaining satellites is still shrouded in mystery. This presents the first comprehensive overview of the geopolitical manoeuvres, financial investments, scientific innovations, and ideological struggles that take place behind the scenes of this fascinating industry.
