🚀Great couple of days at the #UKSC2025 in Manchester! Connecting with people across the space sector & sharing our latest work in #EO.
Joined by colleagues @space4climate.bsky.social, FSF & the NCEO Airborne Earth Observatory!
Thanks to everyone who stopped by if we missed you, let’s connect! 👋
Reflecting on a week buzzing with positivity around UK #satellites & expertise at @ukspaceconference.bsky.social
#UKSC2025
It's been a great two days at the UK Space Conference in Manchester this week. 🛰️🚀
Hear from UK Astronaut Tim Peake speaking from the conference on the benefits of bringing together the UK space community. 🌍👇 #UKSC2025
Thanks to all behind the scenes at the inspiring & energising @ukspaceconference.bsky.social
It was only 2 days but felt as if a whole week of conversations, ideas, planning & networking took place! A true reflection of the thriving UK satellite EO community & wider space sector
#UKSC2025
See our interactive climate globe in action! 🌏Decades of satellite data uniquely visualised and ready to explore. This is how we track Earth's vital signs and climate change from space. Experience it live at #UKSC2025 in Manchester today!
Huge ‘floating’ sphere in dark room. Projected on it is six months of solar activity, sped up to take just 12.5 minutes. V cool.
Good morning! How are you feeling? I am tired and relieved. Important test result came back clear yesterday, TF. Fun seeing old friends and making new at #UKSC2025. Off for another spacey day today. Might need @esa’s amazing re-energisation station. ☕️🚀 #StayBright

🛰 At the UK Space Conference, @calbergel.bsky.social will discuss the new @esa.int missions EarthCARE & Biomass, which provide unparalleled climate data. Join the talk to learn more about these missions' breakthroughs and challenges. #UKSC2025
📅 UK Space Conference, Manchester|17 July, 13:30-14:10
An energising & inspiring Day 1 at #UKSC2025
- and it's going to be busier for us tomorrow!
@nceoscience.bsky.social @ukspaceconference.bsky.social @ukspaceagency.bsky.social
We are excited to be at the UK Space Conference in Manchester today and tomorrow, along with ESERO and the Space Skills Alliance.
Come to stand A16 to chat about careers, skills, recruitment or anything else!

Don't yell at me, you know where I'll be ... #uksc2025
INVICTUS builds upon earlier ESA-led technological developments and will provide a platform for industry, agencies, and academia to trial next-generation hypersonic technologies. #UKSC2025
This panel on supercharging the UK economy with the space sector is entirely women. #uksc2025
Space is now not only being funded by the public sector, but also the private sector, says Josef Aschbacher, director general of the European Space Agency. #uksc2025
More than 60 UK universities have space programs, says Kate Robson Brown, vice president of research innovation and impact for University College, Dublin. #uksc2025
"Space has the power to fundamentally supercharge the UK economy, to create whole new industries, and to structurally boost economic productivity," Bate says. #uksc2025 "Every nation in the world shares a border with a cosmic coastline. Space is a team sport."
Up to 80 billion pounds will be invested over 5 years in satellite communications, position navigation and timing in orbit, servicing assembly and manufacturing, space domain awareness, and earth applications of space data. Today they're announcing 4.5 billion pounds in four new projects. #uksc2025
Every pound committed to ESA leads to 7 pounds 49 in direct benefits to the UK economy, Bate says. That's twice the previous estimate. #uksc2025
The UK Space Agency helped generate at least 2.2 billion pounds in investment and revenue last year. #uksc2025
The space contribution to the UK GDP has gone from 16 to 18%, an increase of 90 billion pounds, Bate says. It is second only to the US in terms of obtaining global space capital between 2015 and 2022. #uksc2025
Paul Bate, CEO of the UK Space Agency, went to the University of Manchester and says that everything he learned about quantum physics and kebabs was from here, and that this conference is the hottest ticket since Oasis (which is a local band and performing down the street). #uksc2025
Ojha: "Space is no longer just part of a critical societal infrastructure or national infrastructure, it's part of our critical national security and intelligence infrastructure." #uksc2025

The UK Space Agency has made several announcements today, including an additional £1.6 million for the UK’s space cluster network to stimulate innovation and economic growth. www.gov.uk/government/n... #uksc2025
The UK has done a good job of knowledge sharing, sustainability guidelines, funding, etc., Courtney says. It's seen as having a robust space legal framework, and it's something it could help other nations with and help African countries develop their own. #uksc2025
