Space isn’t just for astronauts anymore – it’s becoming a frontier of innovation, jobs, and opportunities for people back on Earth. In the next 10–20 years, Luxembourg and Europe could play a key role in shaping a sustainable and thriving space economy, from satellites and in-orbit operations to lunar exploration and resource management. This panel will explore how Europe can strengthen its sovereignty in space, create jobs across diverse industries, and inspire the next generation to be part of this exciting journey – showing that the future of space is not only about technology, but also about people, sustainability, and opportunity.
