This week’s topic: Outer Space

• Speaker: Dr. Mariel Borowitz, Associate Professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs at Georgia Tech.

The launch of Sputnik I in October 1957 marked the beginning of the space era and of the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union. In the 21st century, there are many more participants in space, including countries such as India and China, and commercial companies such as SpaceX. How will the United States fare in a crowded outer space?
