The Participants intend to name designees to hold a regular dialogue to exchange information and collaborate on advancing an agenda and timetable for the pursuit of the topics and issues as outlined herein, with the first topic to be explored to include an international framework for activities of exploration, utilization and exploitation of space resources.
In particular, these points of contact are intended to serve to facilitate dialogue to enable human and robotic space exploration, including missions beyond low-Earth orbit to the Moon for long-term exploration and utilization, and to Mars and other destinations.
We will be live streaming the official launch of the European Space Resources Innovation Centre @ESRIC_lu on Wednesday 18 November 2020, starting at 10.00 am CET. Join us on our YouTube channel to watch the event:
