With a long history in the space industry and a pocketful of healthy companies, Canadians are good at both. But industry executives and experts say the country needs a booster to maintain an advantage in a sector poised to, well, skyrocket.

"We have a lot more experience having companies that make their way in space than a lot of countries do," said Iain Christie, a longtime space executive and analyst." we're still dining out on work that was done 20 years ago."

In 2000, putting a satellite into orbit cost $25,000 per kilogram. Now, depending on which rocket carries the load, it could be as little as $4,000.In 2011, Stephane Germain realized that increasing concern about greenhouse gas emissions was going to create demand to measure them, which can best be done from space.Today, his company GHGSat has six satellites in orbit, with another four planned over the next year.

"There are opportunities to invest in lunar infrastructure," Greenley said -- communications networks, electric vehicles, even space-based mining.Canada's long history in space -- it was the third country to launch a satellite -- has also given it recognized expertise in techniques including synthetic aperture radar, which allows satellites to peer through clouds or at night with amazing accuracy.

Greenley said that when the International Space Station was the big game in town, there were five space agencies involved. Now, he said, there are 21 countries taking part in NASA's Artemis program to the moon.
