Space

The EU's space research plays a crucial role in the ongoing development of the space sector. It stimulates both the research community and private sector to increase their investment and efforts in space exploration.

It also supports a thriving space industry, including manufacturers, service providers, and operators. And it provides essential services and infrastructure for the development and utilization of new technologies.

This page gives you access to the latest information about EU's space research projects.
