Future power
YoungESA is a networking, development and experiential group that fosters contacts and building knowledge, especially among young professionals at ESA.
It was started in 2005 by a group of enthusiastic younger people at the Agency’s technical centre in the Netherlands, and has since expanded throughout ESA. Anyone, regardless of age, may join.
YoungESA organises activities for its members such as field trips, lectures and social events, and has become well known within the Agency for spreading passion for space exploration.
On 28 November, YoungESA visited ESA’s mission control centre in Darmstadt, Germany, for briefings from colleagues on operations, ground systems engineering, mission analysis, training, space debris, navigation and recent highlight missions such as Rosetta.
