Abstract/Index

Orbital exogeographies: the spatial, ecological and infrastructural conditions of climate governance. Spatial foundations of orbital exogeography. Orbital infrastructures as limited and strategic spatial resources. Material mediation and the making of climate knowledge. Theoretical and methodological framework: actor-network theory and infrastructure studies. Satellite observation and the mediation of climate knowledge. How climate knowledge is produced through satellite observation. The circulation and institutionalization of climate knowledge. Power, inequality and the governance of orbital climate data. The political economy of climate data: power, value and dependence. Climate data as economic infrastructure. Value extraction and infrastructural rents. Infrastructural dependence and asymmetries. Governing orbital climate infrastructures: constraints, capacities and limits. Governance of orbital climate infrastructures as a materially situated process. Structural constraints and trade-offs in sustainable and equitable orbital governance. Uneven governance capacities in a constrained orbital domain.
