AEAAS partners met in Lisbon to turn a shared European ambition into a coordinated work programme, aligning governance, responsibilities and the first steps of the project’s 12-month evidence journey.

SpaceWatch.Global has highlighted the launch of AEAAS and its work to review spaceport regulatory practices across more than 40 jurisdictions. The project will use this comparative analysis to support common regulatory practices and guidelines for European spaceports.

The Portuguese Space Agency highlights how Portugal’s recent spaceport licensing experience can help AEAAS turn national lessons into safer, more sustainable and interoperable launch practices for Europe.
