Adam Walton visits the UK Space Conference in Manchester Central, which brings together hundreds of delegates representing space agencies and companies who are playing a role in the expanding and diversifying space industry.
From a communication start up company planning to launch nano satellites to improve connectivity in equatorial regions, to the world's oldest surviving space society, Adam wanders the large exhibition hall. Along the way we hear about Astro-Pi, the space ready version of the Raspberry Pi mini computer, and the range of skills needed when considering a career in the space industry.
