Europlanet Society Webinar (Tuesday, 25 January 2022): Europe and the New Space Race

In a recent interview, Niklas Nienass, a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for Germany in the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance, spoke to Livia Giacomini (Europlanet Society) about his vision for space science in Europe. In this webinar, Europlanet Society Members will have the opportunity to discuss the points raised and feed back opinions from the Community to Mr Nienass.

The discussion points are:
– What is your vision for European space industry in the future?
– What can politics do to regulate space, both in the 27 nations and at a European scale?
– Can space be one of the sectors to invest in to overcome the pandemic crisis?
– What can the scientific and academic community do to help the development of the space sector?
– How can Europe invest in education to support the space sector?
– How can Europe help foster curiosity-driven science?

The webinar will be moderated by Livia Giacomini (Europlanet Society Executive Board) and Nigel Mason (Europlanet Society President).
