Microgravity Will Change How We Make Everything

Bloomberg has been publishing this video series on future technologies called "Giant Leap." It's well-done and a nice use of YouTube as a medium.

This one explores a number of new companies doing R&D in microgravity manufacturing — from biological organ "printing" to creation of high-quality fiber optic materials. There are still some challenges ahead to unlock growth of space as a manufacturing environment, but it feels like we're on the cusp of a new platform for industrial growth in the near future.
