The European Space Talks are discussion rounds organised by the European Space Agency (ESA) focusing on information, inspiration and interaction around space. The aim is to make known to European citizens the universe of space activities, the investments that are linked to them and the benefits that can result from them. Professionals and great European amateurs of space have been selected to inform the public about the topics of space and their profession and to present a wide variety of topics related to space.
In the Grand Duchy, the European Space Talks sessions will promote and raise awareness among the general public on the space sector. Luxembourg's space actors will exchange, around different themes, with interested citizens on the space, its stakes, its activities, its opportunities and its many applications that influence the daily life of everyone. Participation in European Space Talks is free.
