While humankind is only at the beginning of the space era, we already cannot leave our everyday life without satellite services or space-inspired technologies, not even to mention security issues.
Space may seem like a dreamy destination… but you will not get there on a scooter. To explore the unknown and prepare for humanity’s future on Earth and in the harsh conditions of space, bravery alone isn’t enough. You also need talent, skills, and passion in various fields. Space activities and technologies are part of our everyday lives, and it’s not just about rockets and satellites. It also involves law, business, politics, security, the environment, robotics, medicine, and fundamental science, to name just a few.
