🇫🇷 A remarkable moment for French and European human spaceflight. The announcement of two new missions for French astronauts with @vast reflect both the ambition of our Member States and the strength of the @ESA astronaut corps. Human spaceflight is more than ever strategic, #HumanSpaceflight #FrenchAstronauts #EuropeanSpaceAgency #FR #EU

La défense planétaire est, par définition, une responsabilité mondiale.

🇪🇸 The weeks mission to Spain has highlighted a deepening relationship with @ESA – and an increase in Spanish leadership in the space sector. In Madrid, I met PM @sanchezcastejon and Minister @DianaMorantR to discuss Spain’s rising role in space and Europe’s autonomy, security & https://t.co/BkZvhrGm4D #SpainInSpace #ESALeadership #SpaceSecurity #ES

Josef Aschbacher: Uskoro ćemo svjedočiti nečemu što nikada prije nismo vidjeli: Zemljinom nevidljivom oklopu u akciji. Programom Smile pomičemo granice znanosti u nastojanju da odgovorimo na velika pitanja koja su ostala misterij otkako smo prije više od sedamdeset godina otkrili da se Zemlja sigurno nalazi unutar divovskog magnetskog balona.

Josef Aschbacher: Com o apoio concedido pelos nossos Estados-membros para o desenvolvimento de missões espaciais audaciosas, a ESA recrutará mais de 400 novos colaboradores em 2026, abrangendo uma ampla gama de disciplinas. A ESA realizou missões espaciais notáveis ao longo dos últimos 50 anos — graças à dedicação e conhecimento da nossa força de trabalho — e desejamos realizar ainda mais nos próximos 50. Este ano marcará um passo decisivo rumo ao fortalecimento da constelação de talentos da ESA, que moldará as missões de amanhã e o futuro do espaço na Europa.

Today, ESA’s SMILE mission lifted off on a Vega-C and on a unique scientific journey: to observe and understand Earth’s magnetic shield and how it interacts with the solar wind. This mission will provide a new global view of the dynamic boundary that protects our planet, helping https://t.co/c3RE8ToBVd #ESASMILE #EarthScience #SpaceMission #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

Recent changes to the Artemis architecture signal a rapidly shifting landscape in human space exploration. Decisions to pause Gateway and cancel Mars Sample Return disrupt Europe’s lunar exploration plans, underscoring a broader reality: Europe has become too exposed to decisions https://t.co/lD5w8Pkuk2 #Artemis #SpaceExploration #Gateway #EU

Space cannot work in isolation. The environment we operate in today requires constant dialogue between policymakers, industry, researchers and society at large. #SpaceCollaboration #Innovation #PolicyDialogue #Nospecificcountrycodescanbeextractedfromthetweet.
