Achieving Sustainability through the Circular Economy in the Space Sector
Inspired by Industry 4.0, the Space 4.0 terminology is coined to reflect the new era where technologies have enabled more actors from the commercial sector or developing nations to participate in the value chain. This phenomenon has also prompted sustainability issues such as the vast amount of space debris orbiting Earth. Circular economy could offer a solution for the sustainability issue. However, the existing information system (IS) research shows limited work in integrating Industry 4.0 and circular economy in achieving sustainability, including the space sector. Therefore, this developmental paper aims to fill this gap by first studying the relevant concepts followed by illustrating the next phase of this research using case studies. This research intends to contribute to achieving sustainability by circular economy driven by Industry 4.0 in the space sector, which will be pivotal in expanding the domain knowledge of IS research.
