Podcast: The Netflix for space, with LeoLabs Australia
In a time where more satellites are launching into space than ever, it is vital to have a 24/7 eye in the sky. 
  
On this week’s Space Connect Podcast episode, host Bella Richards chats to managing director and president of LeoLabs Australia, Terry van Haren. The two first discuss the importance of having radars looking at orbiting objects in space at all times.

Then, Bella and Terry chat about the latest news of LeoLabs being selected by Japan to provide data services with the ability to track satellites and debris in low-Earth orbit. The two talk about why this contract is significant, and how it is also beneficial for Australia.

Lastly, the duo discusses the ongoing ramifications of the Russian anti-satellite test that occurred in November last year, and how LeoLabs was a key player in tracking the resulting debris.
