Join World Space Week!

In 1999, the United Nations General Assembly declared “World Space Week” to be held every year from 4 to 10 October to celebrate the contribution of space science and technology to the betterment of the human condition.

World Space Week is the largest event in the world dedicated to the exploration and use of outer space. Thousands of space sector organizations around the world, including state space agencies and private companies, educational institutions and academia, hold events united by a common theme.
