1 ATLAS-1, Belgian Space Policy and ? A personal view D. Fonteyn DG Research programmes and aerospace applications

2 NOT Historical overview List of achievements Budgets BUT Earth observation in Belgium Parallel with own scientific experience

3 Belgian Space Policy since end 80’s: Space policy implemented through ESA Priority on Earth Observation Climate “Global Change” Scientific expertise In response to societal challenges Examples: – Spacelab, EURECA(ORA) – MIRAS, SPOT VEGETATION

4 VEGETATION: Multilateral international cooperation National research programme supporting this priority (land) SPOT-Vegetation processing and archiving facility Towards operational capacity

5 Example: Brazil deforestation

6 VEGETATION: National research programme Processing, archiving and distribution Other Belgian priority: Technology development (PROBA), small missions Converging into

7 “Full” Belgian “small” mission in ESA framework Platform, instrument, PI, operations = Belgian Belgian contribution to GMES

8 Launch: 2013 Satisfying a large user community

9 ATLAS-1, data quality vs ~ week coverage 0-D → 2-D model chemical composition

10 ESA/Envisat Priority for Belgium Scientific Expertise !! Research satellite NRT data 3-D → 4-D Var chemical data assimilation → NRT 9 day forecast

17 Earth Observation ATLAS-1: NOW?? BE small missions

18 Earth Observation A limb remote sounding experiment on a micro- satellite proposed by the Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy THE ALTIUS MISSION A tmospheric L imb T racker for I nvestigation of the U pcoming S tratosphere

19 Earth Observation Development ALTIUS BE small missions Technology meets science Keep momentum

20 Earth Observation Scientific knowledge BE small missions Total concept Strong BE involvement GMES End User driven

21 Earth Observation Weather story: TIROS 1: 1960 Improvement quality weather forecast only 90’s 30 – 40 year delay GMES no time to waste Not at the cost of R&D budget
