14. 14 European Foreign and Security Policy European Foreign and Security Policy In case of conflicts, man-made and natural disasters:  First challenge: Situation assessment  Crises abroad can be managed using satellite applications:  Satellite Imaging  Satellite Communication  Satellite Navigation FP-7 is funding G-MOSAIC (GMES Services for Management of Operations, Situation Awareness and Intelligence for regional Crises)

15. 15 The Security of the Space Infrastructure Space infrastructure is threatened by Space infrastructure is threatened by  space debris and  collision between spacecraft  two satellites collided on February 11, 2009 over Siberia at an altitude of about 750km Hence the necessity Hence the necessity  to improve space monitoring capabilities  to improve the coordination between space operators

16. 16 Develop a European capability for the monitoring and surveillance of the space infrastructure and of space debris Develop a European capability for the monitoring and surveillance of the space infrastructure and of space debris ESA has launched a Preparatory Programme ESA has launched a Preparatory Programme Space weather impact on security infrastructure (radiation etc.) Space weather impact on security infrastructure (radiation etc.) Active debris removal Active debris removal European Space Situational Awareness – SSA
