Astrium European and International Cooperations experience

Space in Europe has developed through European and international cooperation.

Astrium and its daughter companies have grown for 40 years in cooperation and have applied this expertise to support countries to develop their own Space Programme, capacities, and industrial expertise:

Tutorials and training in Astrium facilities or in Academia Joint developments Space Programmes support function of the countries wishes

All these successful space programmes have developed on 3 pillars: Agency, Academia Industry (large and SMEs)

Lessons learnt from European cooperation : the case of Spain

Spain was already present in the Aeronautics domain (CASA) Spain joined ESA in 1975, as a founding member and participates

in all ESA programmes. Fair return of public money required local industrial capacities with

appropriate standards and processes and Spain started to build it. Small companies have emerged Astrium invested in a number of Spanish companies which are now

major players Spain is now developing an Optical Earth Observation satellite and a

Radar Earth Observation satellite

The Czech ESA PECS example

Astrium involved Czech AICAS Institute for the accelerometer in the SWARM phase A based on MIMOSA experience in 2003

ESA User consultation meeting selected SWARM in April 2004

PECS charter between ESA and Czech Republic signed Nov 2004 SWARM phase B/C/D competition in 2005: Astrium won with AICAS. SWARM phase B conducted in 2006/2007. Accelerometer contract

awarded to VZLU (production partner to AICAS).

Recently ESA stated that the contract allows Czech industry to: Develop accelerometer technology to reach worldwide market standard Enlarge its knowledge in methodology, simulations and technology procedures

in various fields w.r.t. ESA ECSS standards Develop manufacturing and testing skills compliant with ESA standards Strengthening marketing, management, PA and testing skills

A global approach to EO, TC and Navigation programmes including applications & services

Space fully embedded in the citizen life can create new sectors of economy Already a strong position of Polish industry, SMEs and labs in these fields

thanks to the EC and ESA programmes, for example in EO based land applications and services mainly jointly with Infoterra

ESA GSE Land - in the frame of PECS – Urban Mapping (TECHMEX) and Water Quality (IGIK)

FP6 Geoland - methodology for crop monitoring and yield assessment based on EO data (IGIK with Observatory Food Security and Crop Monitoring and Core Service Generic Land Cover)

FP7 Geoland2 – Geoland implementation (IGIK and SRC) (Space Research Institute)

Country specific markets can only be developed locally

The whole chain has to be addressed since the beginning to be fully satisfactory

Astrium views and conclusion

The European space policy must be at the scale of Europe, however industrial capacity and space budget in Europe are limited

Space based commercial market is growing but engineers and experts are in short supply

Some key hardware are not available in Europe

Poland has a long scientific/technical tradition and industrial capabilities The European space sector welcomes Poland participation and support Space in Poland can become an economic and technical driver with an early

partnership with space industry and associated universities.

Astrium has all the competencies and is fully committed to support Poland in such an endeavour in order to have “more Europe in space” and “more space in Europe”,

together.
