Not so long ago, it was every child's dream to grow up and become an astronaut. No other adventure could match the race into the final frontier. Today, the United States has sidelined manned space missions. The dream of being an astronaut is swapped with being an engineer who can design spacecraft, rovers and other methods of exploration. The encouraging news is, Colorado may be the best place on earth to pursue such a career.

Edgar Johansson, President of the Colorado Space Business Roundtable talks with Connect & Collaborate about Colorado's role in the future of space exploration. The Colorado Space Business Roundtable is a collective forum for those interested in the growth of space-related industry.

You'll be amazed at the many ways Colorado reaches space and learn how you can be a part of it all.
