Written by European Commission | Jul 31, 2025 1:00:00 AM

Reliable and resilient ground infrastructure is a cornerstone of Europe’s capacity to ensure autonomous access to space.

To bolster Europe's independent access to space, the European Commission has launched a study on Key Ground Infrastructure for Access to Space. This initiative aligns with the European Union's strategic objectives and has received strong support from the European Parliament.

The aim is to assess current capabilities, identify future needs, and explore possible actions to be taken in the future.

The European Commission invites stakeholders across the European space sector to participate by submitting proposals and contributing with expertise to help shape future EU initiatives in this critical domain.

This call for participation will remain open until September 15, 2025.
