Cislunar economy
The cislunar economy refers to commercial activities and industries operating in the space region between Earth and the Moon, known as cislunar space. This includes resource extraction (like mining lunar or asteroid materials), transportation, communication, and infrastructure development. As technology advances, the cislunar economy aims to support broader space exploration, science, and possibly new markets, creating economic opportunities beyond Earth. It’s a growing sector that could enhance humanity’s presence in space while offering new resources and innovations to benefit Earth.
