Agenzia Spaziale Italiana <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Italian Space Agency (ASI) was established in 1988 with the task of promoting, developing and disseminating scientific and technological research applied to the space and aerospace sectors, and of implementing Italian space policy in accordance with the strategic guidelines defined by the Italian Government and approved by the Interministerial Committee for Space and Aerospace Research Policy (COMINT), chaired by the Prime Minister or a delegated authority. COMINT sets out the general guidelines for national space policy, which ASI implements through the planning and execution of its institutional activities, whilst ensuring the coordination of Italy\u2019s participation in European and international programmes. ASI is now among the top six space agencies in the world, a distinction that reflects the prestigious role Italy plays in the space sector at European and global level. Thanks to the San Marco satellites, Italy was among the pioneers of the space age and is now the third-largest contributor to the European Space Agency (ESA), after France and Germany. Our country is one of the first signatories to the Artemis Accords for NASA\u2019s new lunar programme and is also one of the few countries in the world which, through its own agency, operates across all areas of space application.

Space42 Europe\u00a0<\/strong>
A science communication agency founded in 2019 by a network of professional science communicators with experience in the space sector and STEM disciplines. The team brings together over 20 professionals with diverse scientific backgrounds \u2014 astrophysicists, biologists, geologists and physicists \u2014 who work alongside developers, designers, videographers and 3D artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
