EUSPA’s First Open-Air Exhibition is Now Open to the Public

From November 4 to 6, we are bringing the power of the EU Space Programme down to Earth!

A colourful experience invites you to discover the latest applications and services enabled by Galileo, EGNOS, Copernicus, and GOVSATCOM.

Under a new name and with a broadened scope of activities, EUSPA decided to move its signature event, ‘’Open Days’’ outside to comply with the current hygiene rules.

‘’EUSPA Open Space” is a walkthrough, open-air exhibition that will introduce visitors to the newly established EU Space Programme as well the agency’s new mission.

With just a month away from the launch of the newest Galileo satellites from the European Spaceport, EUSPA Open Space will offer you the possibility to brush up on space knowledge.

Wander around the exhibition, learn more about the upcoming services of Galileo and EGNOS before immersing yourself in a colourful Earth Observation collection with Copernicus images from around Europe.

With Europe set to become climate-neural by 2050, space data and services play a crucial role in the EU Green Deal. From helping curb CO2 emissions to fighting illegal logging, Galileo, EGNOS and Copernicus contribute to the fight against climate change. EUSPA Open Space also highlights the link between the EU Space Programme, climate action, and sustainability.

For those interested in the agency’s activities, career, and funding opportunities EUSPA Staff will be available in the expo area.

On November 5, from 10:30 to 11:00 and November 6, from 11:00 to 11:30, Executive Director, Rodrigo da Costa, will be answering visitors’ questions.

The exhibition will be open to the public from 4 to 6 November 2021 from 09:00 to 22:00 at Janovského 438/2, 170 00 Praha 7-Holešovice.
