Space Day

ISPRA and the Arpa / Appa environmental agencies are committed to reusing the investments spent in space on Earth, thanks to the new tools offered by Copernicus. For twenty years, the EU earth observation program has been one of the pillars of European space policy and guarantees open, free and free data to anyone.
ISPRA and the Copernicus User Forum participate in the first National Space Day, established by the Presidency of the Council of Ministers. The aim of the initiative is to promote greater awareness of space activities to show how much the services generated by space affect daily life and what returns the sector offers in terms of economic growth, technology and international prestige of the country.
