On Hyperbola, David Todd responded to UK Space Agency boasts of double-digit growth in space revenues, saying the popularity of football broadcasts on satellite TV should be borne in mind. "A lot of this business is in the form of revenues from derivative interests," he wrote. "Sadly, satellite and launch vehicle manufacturing remains a very small business in the UK."
