Satellite navigation has become part of our daily life. Beyond the transport sector where it enhances safety, efficiency and comfort, it is used in very different areas such as agriculture, rescue operations networks management and banking.
In the early 1990s ESA initiated research and development programmes in cooperation with the European Commission and the Civil Aviation community, leading to:
EGNOS, the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service. Operational since 2011, EGNOS improves the performance of GPS and provides vertical guidance for aviation facilitating, for example, landing in small airports.
Two test-satellites GIOVE-A and B. These have prepared the way for a full Galileo constellation, and demonstrated key technologies in a very specific orbit and environment.
The first two operational satellites for Galileo, launched in 2011. Two more will join them in 2012 for a complete In-Orbit Validation and Qualification of the Galileo design.
The fully deployed system will consist of 30 satellites circling Earth at an altitude of 23,000 km and will be operated by a worldwide network of ground stations.
Galileo will be Europe’s own global satellite navigation system, compatible and interoperable with the existing American GPS and Russian GLONASS military-controlled systems.

Since 1983 ESA astronauts have been taking part in numerous missions onboard the US space shuttle and the Russian MIR station, gaining a wealth of experience in many disciplines.
In 1998, the European Astronaut Centre was established in Germany to prepare European astronauts for missions to the International Space Station, ISS. Most have already flown on missions to the ISS, playing a vital role in the assembly and operation of key elements of the station.
They also carry out research in life sciences, human physiology and materials science in microgravity conditions, delivering results that cannot be achieved here on Earth. Such studies can help us in many areas on Earth, from understanding the causes of diseases or developing techniques for their prevention and treatment, to the introduction of new manufacturing processes.
In May 2009 six new astronauts were recruited to join the European Astronaut Corps to prepare for the next generation of human spaceflight and exploration. They will start training at the EAC in Cologne to prepare for future missions to the ISS, the Moon and beyond.
