Colonialism and Rocket Launches in Churchill, MB
Abstract
People have looked to the sky for generations and around the world, using the stars for navigation and mythology. Since the 1950s, space sciences (astronomy, aerospace engineering, planetary sciences, and more) have been inextricably linked to political and corporate interests. My reflection provides a short history of the colonial history of space science. It examines two potential futures for space science, one that continues perpetuating hegemonic narratives of domination and another that centres Indigenous geographies and scientific knowledge.
