On Saturday 29 June, visitors to ESA’s open day at its European Centre for Space Applications and Telecommunications (ECSAT) were greeted by a giant inflatable astronaut.
The open day featured a packed programme of talks and hands-on demonstrations that launched visitors on an inspiring journey through ECSAT’s activities, showing how expert teams at the site are collaborating with partners on campus, the UK and across ESA’s Member States for the benefit of European citizens.
