Listen "The Arctic from Outer Space"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we look up to the Arctic sky. Connectivity has always been a challenge in the North: for shipping routes, for scientific research, and for the daily lives of Arctic communities. Now, with new ground stations being built in the region, opportunities are opening for advanced Earth observation, for monitoring geomagnetic activity, and with it, new implications for international law in the regulation of outer space.Moderating the session was Chaitanya Giri, Fellow at the Centre for Security, Strategy and Technology at the Observer Research Foundation.This conversation was recorded live at the Arctic Circle India Forum, held in New Delhi on May 3–4, 2025, and is part of the Polar Dialogue.Arctic Circle is the largest network of international dialogue and cooperation on the future of the Arctic.
