The €15bn unified EU space programme
The European Parliament has finalised a new €14.8 billion seven-year EU space program, which will for the first time bring together all EU space activities under one roof. Running the space program under a single regulation is intended to get rid of redundancy and overlaps between the European Space Agency and the European Commission. The goal is to make the EU a global player in space, rivaling the position of the US and China.
The programme will support existing EU space initiatives, such as Galileo and Copernicus, as well as some new tools for space surveillance and satellite communications. €9.1 billion will fund the satellite navigation system Galileo, and the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay service, which supplements Galileo’s observations by double-checking the accuracy of its positioning data. Another €5.42 billion will be invested in the Copernicus earth observation system, to run services monitoring the atmosphere, marine and land environments, climate, emergencies and security.
All this will be overseen by three institutions. The Commission will manage the overall programme; the new EU Agency in Prague for the Space Programme (EUSPA) will manage Galileo and the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service; while the European Space Agency will be responsible for research and development.
Horizon Europe 2021-2027 provides €95 billion for research and innovation
Horizon Europe, the EU research and innovation programme will have a budget of around €95.5 billion for 2021-2027. This includes €5.4 billion from NextGenerationEU (see post below) to boost recovery and make the EU more resilient for the future, as well as an additional reinforcement of €4.5 billion. Overall this represents a 30% increase vis-à-vis the current research and innovation programme, Horizon 2020 and makes it the most ambitious research and innovation programme in the world.
The aim is to strengthen the region’s scientific and technological base, develop solutions for healthier living, drive digital transformation and fight climate change, for the EU’s collective resilience. This political agreement is now subject to formal approval by the European Parliament and Council.
How to live in space

A public-friendly extract of the data has been prepared and made into a presentation. We invite you to have a look at how humans could be living on the moon, mars and beyond in 2040.
