Did you know? The Australian Space Industry is where Aussienauts® are born.

In 1967 WRESAT was launched on a US Redstone rocket reaching low Earth orbit positioning Australia as the third OECD nation on Earth to place its very own satellite into space.

With the advent of commercial space launches, the establishment of our very own space agency and with the rise of the space manufacturing sector, Australia is now poised to take advantage of Space 2.0.

Josh Keegan is the host of Aussienaut® interviewing the people behind a swag of Australian universities and businesses as they forge a new path for the Australian Space Industry. He take you behind the scenes to learn how they are making their mark on the next space race.

Using YouTube as a non-traditional platform, Aussienaut® provides companies, businesses, universities and individuals a platform to talk about what they want rather than a cut-down version traditional media offers, showcasing what they do to a global audience.
