For most of the twentieth century, science advanced by going deeper into narrow corridors. Biologists studied cells. Computer scientists studied algorithms. Materials engineers studied matter at the atomic scale. Each discipline built its own language, its own institutions, its own definition of progress. That era is ending. We are entering a period of bio-convergence —…

Today, it is becoming something else entirely: a rapidly emerging commercial market. The shift is not incremental. It is structural. Launch costs are falling. Private capital is flowing. Entire industries are being rebuilt with space infrastructure…
