What is Babel Moon?

“The electric light did not come from the continuous improvement of candles.”

— Oren Harari

Babel Moon lends a commercial lens on developments in space technologies, AI, robotics, quantum computing and other emerging deep-tech. We take the view that access to space and deep-tech should be democratised and free of stifling regulatory control, in order for humans to fully embrace non-terrestrial frontiers and evolve into a space-faring civilisation, with access to unlimited natural resources provided by asteroids and distant moons. Disruptive technologies and spin-offs emerging from the space industry will benefit all humankind, potentially bringing a planet-wide end to poverty and unequal distribution of wealth and natural resources. These technologies and the resources they give access to have the power to expand and transform the global economy by creating new industries, markets, companies, jobs, and other opportunities.

Resilient business and revenue models, clear go-to-market strategies, and innovation uptake within organisations are prime concerns for Newspace and deep-tech companies seeking to develop and commercialise emerging tech. This perspective categorises the Babel Moon website into three broad space-faring sections (overall space economy, orbital and lunar activities) and the underlying deep-tech that supports cross-pollination of ideas and technology transfer across industries (AI & robotics, quantum computing, and other emerging tech).
