How can space science missions advance science, drive innovation and create a vibrant UK space industry?
30th April 2025 18.00-19.30 (online)
The UK science community have played a central role in space science missions over several decades, and the UK is a founder member of the European Space Agency (ESA), which celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2025. What has been the scientific impact of the UK's leading role in space science missions over the last decades? And how has our expertise in space science fed through to the UK's dynamic and growing space industry sector?
Speakers:
Rt Hon Lord (David) Willetts FRS, Chair of the Foundation for Science and Technology and Chair of the UK Space Agency [Chair]
Professor Carole Mundell, Director of Science at the European Space Agency and Head of the European Space Astronomy Centre
Professor Adam Amara, Chief Scientist, UK Space Agency
