The bottom line

Roughly 75% of the work in Space Research and Technology is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.

Why: Because no child occupations or products are seeded for this composite, the scalar is derived entirely from the NAICS lens name and description. The industry's focus on 'administration', 'space research', and 'technology' strongly indicates knowledge work, data analysis, and remote operations. While operating 'space flight centers' entails some physical facility and testing elements, the core value-producing work is heavily computerized information transformation, placing this at a low-digital band-center value.

Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.

The problems this exposes
