Association of European Space Research Establishments (ESRE)

Otevřeno! Výzkumný a zkušební letecký ústav (VZLÚ) otevřel nové centrum pro operování družic (Space Operations Centre / SOC). Právě odtud budou v budoucnu řízeny družice VZLÚ i družice dalších subjektů. Splňuje nejen potřeby technické, ale i bezpečnostní. 📡 👏 👉 https://lnkd.in/eBGFsDqX Na akci současně představil novou misi s názvem VZLUGEM. Bude se věnovat technologiím, které dokáží lokalizovat a prozkoumat objekty ohrožující kritickou infrastrukturu Země. V budoucnu je pak zachytí a zničí stáhnutím do atmosféry, kde shoří. Technologie mohou být využitelné například v oblasti obrany, pro řešení problematiky kosmického smetí nebo k údržbě družic na oběžné dráze. 🛰️ 👉 https://lnkd.in/eVQiS7_E Díky za účast zástupcům Ministerstvo dopravy ČR Martin Kupka

What is the Digitalisation for Commercial Space Solutions Partnership? 🚀 The Digitalisation for Commercial Space Solutions Partnership is a vital initiative within the European Union's Horizon Europe framework. This Partnership brings together public and private partners to jointly support the development of cutting-edge research and innovation (R&I) programs in the space sector. By pooling resources and focusing efforts on key domains, the Partnership contributes to Europe’s global competitiveness and strengthens its position in the rapidly evolving space market. Why Is the Partnership Important? The Partnership contributes significantly to the EU's political priorities, such as the Green Deal, Europe’s digital strategy, and pandemic preparedness. Through its technological, scientific, and societal objectives, the Partnership aims to: •  Accelerate innovation by fostering collaboration and attracting private investments. •   Foster competitiveness by focusing R&I efforts on key domains like telecommunications and Earth observation. •   Strengthen Europe’s capacity to access space by developing new space transportation solutions. What are the Key Work Packages of the Partnership? The Partnership is organised through six Work Packages, each designed to deliver specific outcomes and drive innovation in European space technologies: Contribution to the R&I Space Strategy and Work Programme: •  Delivers the strategic and programmatic inputs to implement the Partnership's technology roadmap in the Horizon Europe Work Programme Updates of the SRIA: •  Provides updates to the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA), supporting the evolution of the European Union's Space R&I strategy Partnership Projects Monitoring: •  Ensures proper monitoring of R&I projects funded through the Partnership, collecting lessons learned, and identifying future targets Partnership Administration and Reporting: •  Manages and reports on Partnership activities, including additional efforts to promote the roadmap to institutional stakeholders SPACE AISBL Setup and Operations: •  Establishes and manages SPACE AISBL, the leading entity that unifies five representative associations from the space sector. Project Management and Coordination: •  Oversees day2day management, ensuring quality control, risk management, and smooth project operations Shape the Future of European Space Policy! Your participation in the consultations is essential to shaping future space policy and influencing the R&I strategy for the years to come. By sharing your insights, you can help define the roadmap and contribute to building Europe’s competitive edge in the global space sector. 🗓️ Next Consultation Workshops: •  November 14th – New Space Transportation Solutions •  November 15th – Commercial Earth Observation and Satellite Communication Register for free now! https://lnkd.in/erCfyepp #EuropeanSpace #SpaceStrategy #SpaceConsultations #Digitalisation #SpaceAISBL #Workshops

The History of Space AISBL and the Partnership 🚀 As we continue to build our presence on LinkedIn, we want to take a moment to reflect on the history of Space AISBL and the exciting partnership we've formed to boost the competitiveness of the space sector. Since our founding by five associations - ASD-Eurospace, SME4SPACE, Association of European Space Research Establishments (ESRE), EASTRO, and EASN - European Aeronautics Science Network we have been dedicated to creating a unified voice for the upstream space community. Our mission took a significant step forward with the establishment of the “Digitalisation for Commercial Space Solutions” Partnership, which began its activities in June 2023. What is this Partnership about? The Partnership aims to enhance competitiveness in three key areas: 1. Commercial Earth Observation Solutions 2. Commercial Telecommunications Solutions 3. New Space Transportation Solutions Our focus spans both space and ground segments, ensuring a holistic approach to these technology areas. Do you want to learn more about what happened already, for example or the 2025 calls? Read here: https://lnkd.in/eMq5g9Ud As we work towards the 2026, and 2027 calls, we are now initiating consultations to gather insights from European Space entities. Your input is invaluable in shaping the future of these initiatives! Get Involved now!  We invite you to participate in our upcoming workshops, where you can share your views and contribute to the discussions: November 14th, 9:00 – 13:00: New Space Transportation Solutions (including Ground Segment) November 15th, 10:00 – 17:00: Commercial EO/Satcom Solutions (including Ground Segment) Registration is free!

Introducing Space AISBL 🚀 We’re thrilled to launch our official LinkedIn page! Founded by five key associations in the space sector - ASD-Eurospace, SME4SPACE, Association of European Space Research Establishments (ESRE), EASTRO, and EASN - European Aeronautics Science Network - Space AISBL was established to unify our voices and efforts in the rapidly evolving space landscape.  Our mission? To structure and enhance the activities within the recently initiated Globally Competitive Space Systems (GCSS) Co-Programmed Partnership with the European Union, which began on October 1, 2024. What do we stand for? Our association represents the diverse tapestry of the upstream space community - from large entities and midcaps to SMEs, research organizations, and academic institutions. Together, we are committed to fostering collaboration and innovation in the space sector. The SPACE AISBL Founding Members currently represent >60% of the supply chain, read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/e82bJ8cB Our Objectives: At Space AISBL, we aim to: 1. Promote and facilitate upstream research for competitive space systems in line with the scope and objectives of the Memorandum of Understanding which was signed in September.

🛰 Les accéléromètres de l’ONERA vont équiper la Next Generation Gravity Mission de l’European Space Agency - ESA. L’ESA et l’ONERA ont signé un contrat d’un montant de 27,3 M€ pour la réalisation de la mission NGGM (Next Generation Gravity Mission), pour laquelle le centre français de recherches aérospatiales va développer et qualifier l’accéléromètre MicroSTAR à l’horizon 2027, afin de livrer 7 modèles de vol en 2028. Les états membres de l’ESA viennent de confirmer ce choix avec une configuration de mission ambitieuse. Ce choix est une nouvelle reconnaissance mondiale de l’expertise ONERA dans le domaine de l’accélérométrie ultra-sensible. Ainsi, la NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration a aussi choisi d’équiper sa future mission GRACE-C des accéléromètres les plus sensibles de l’ONERA dans la continuité des missions GRACE et GRACE-FO. La mission NGGM de l’ESA vise à cartographier précisément le champ de gravité de la Terre et de ses évolutions mensuelles. L’enjeu est de poser une première pierre à un programme de surveillance continue des évolutions du champ de gravité terrestre, afin de suivre l’évolution des masses d’eau (y compris sous-terraines) comme la fonte des glaces, le transfert des bassins hydrologiques et la surveillance des nappes phréatiques critique pour l’agriculture. Les technologies développées par l’ONERA contribueront ainsi à une meilleure analyse des impacts de l’évolution du climat. 🔗 Communiqué de presse : https://lnkd.in/eYtws3JU
