This report examines current UK civil space policy, including: the forthcoming Space Strategy 2007-2010; the way in which space activities are organised through the British National Space Centre (BNSC) partnership and whether this partnership should be replaced by a space agency; international relations; the UK's role in the European Space Agency (ESA); and the opportunity for bilateral missions. The Committee's report identifies areas of concern relating to organisational structures, funding and co-ordination of space activities, but also notes the impressive range of activities undertaken by the UK space sector and highlights the opportunities for the UK to lead developments in emerging areas such as exploration, satellite navigation, and Earth observation. |
