Russell and Tunkel pointed to falling launch costs, continued demand for satellites and India's recent moon landing as reasons to be excited about the future for the space industry.
The most successful of these funds, both by total assets and performance this year, is Cathy Wood's Ark Space Exploration & Innovation ETF (ARKX) .

For investors looking for a more narrow approach, BCA described the Procure Space ETF (UFO) as the "purest play on space exploration."
