🌍🚀 Is Europe a space power?

Being a space power is not just about counting launches or hardware in orbit. It is about what you can do with those capabilities and whether you have the freedom and political will to use them effectively.

What does Europe need to achieve this?⬇️

🌍🛰️ A Policy Vision for Earth Observation

Earth observation isn’t just about beautiful images from space—it’s about turning space tech into real-world solutions for global challenges.

🧵👇

[European Space Policy Institute (ESPI) @ESPIspace]

This vision is a call to action:
✅ Policymakers: integrate EO & space into strategies
✅ Space community: open new channels for policy dialogue

Together, we can redefine Europe’s role in EO over the next decade.
