In a leafy science park in Surrey, there’s a team of engineers making something that’s not intended for our world – it’s designed to live in space.
Number 22 on our list of the greatest things we make in Britain is The Space Satellite.
In this week’s episode of The Factory Next Door, we head to Surrey Satellite Technologies to meet with systems engineer Lily Forward and head of marketing Andrew Greenhalgh. We chat about the magic of working in the space industry, launch day nerves, and the dangers of lunchtime snacks. We also talk Elon Musk and offer sympathy to finance directors.
Hit the play button and let’s hang out. Afterwards, say hello on Instagram @thefactorynextdoor
