“There’s something called the overview effect that astronauts describe… It’s one thing to look at Google Earth and another to look out the window of the International Space Station.” - Scot Bryson, Founder of Orbital Farm
Don't miss this transformative episode launching this Sunday on The Business Development Podcast!
In our coming episode, Scot Bryson shares a powerful perspective on the "Overview Effect," a profound experience described by astronauts when they see Earth from space. Imagine orbiting the Earth every 90 minutes, seeing the entire planet without borders, and realizing how close space really is—just 500 kilometers above us.
This unique view from space offers a life-changing shift in perspective. It's not about being Canadian, American, or European—it's about seeing ourselves as humans and earthlings first.
With commercial space launches by companies like Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin, more people are getting the chance to experience this effect. The result? Returning to Earth with a renewed sense of connection and responsibility to our planet and all its inhabitants.
How can we bring this "Overview Effect" down to Earth? By reimagining our roles, not just as citizens of a country but as stewards of a shared planet. Scot's work with Orbital Farm aims to harness this mindset to build a sustainable, interconnected future for all of us.
