August 27, 2021

The head of the European Space Agency says plans are moving forward to host a European space summit early next year to discuss proposals for new major space initiatives.

In an interview during the 36th Space Symposium, Josef Aschbacher said that summit, which he proposed shortly after becoming ESA director general in March, is expected to take place by next spring. France will host the event as the country will have both the co-presidency of ESA as well as the presidency of the European Union in the first half of 2022.
