Recent years have seen a strong growth in the interest of the national and international community in space-related issues and their use by all nations. In this scenario, Latin American countries, and in particular Chile, are called to play a frontline role due to their positioning in space activity and the growing activity that is taking place in our countries, which compels us to advance in the search for strategies and guidelines that can contribute to the development of space applications.<\/p>
