    The space enterprise, broadly defined, is changing substantially. It is moving from a government dominated set of players to one where governments continue to play a role but there is growing entrepreneurial interest. This is being enabled by the rise and interests of the billionaires with space interests as well as the drop in launch costs and the growth of capable small satellites.
