Space Park Leicester explained - vision and ambitions

Space Park Leicester is a focal point for the end-to-end lifecycle, scientific and technology value generated from science and Earth observation missions. We build, test and operate space instruments and technologies. We use and interpret the data generated from space missions to expand scientific horizons and shape future technology and instrument requirements for future missions. We bridge between research technology and innovative teaching and training programmes to develop the next generation of scientists and engineers.

This film describes the ambition for Space Park Leicester to become a world-leading hub for space and space-enabled industry that will change the economics of access to space, catalyse inward investment, industry growth, international partnerships. It outlines our plans to address global challenges, including climate change, air quality, net zero and health.
