European Space Technology Platform – ESTP
Satellites around the globe send images of rain and windstorms heading our way, television news is beamed around the world by satellites, and we are guided to restaurants and theatres by satellite navigation. Europe is increasingly depending on space systems for many applications of daily use and others of high strategic value. Challenges of the sector include dependence on others for some critical space components, gaps in its development of future technologies and a limited commitment to security-related space activities.
