Abstract
States with economies big enough to support space programs and invest into those programs have technology that has revitalized the international system. States without access to space and these scientific inventions are often left behind when it comes to investment opportunities and participation on the international market. States utilize space technology to intentionally or unintentionally perpetuate the poverty of developing states. Examining how investing in space telecommunications technology can boost the economies of developing states, this paper aims to highlight an unconventional path toward the further development of the Global South.
