N° 32–2009: Traditional press breakfast with ESA’s Director General in Paris

18 December 2009

On Thursday 14 January 2010, ESA's Director General Jean-Jacques Dordain will meet the press at the traditional start-of-year gathering at ESA’s headquarters in Paris. The meeting will begin at 08:30 with breakfast, followed at 09:00 by a press briefing to go over the Agency’s activities in the year just ended and take a look at activities to come in 2010.

 

The highlights of the year will be the launch of Node 3 and Cupola, and of CryoSat, as well as of two ESA astronauts to the International Space Station. A simulated 520-day 'trip to Mars' will be starting in May. The launch of the second Automated Transfer Vehicle and of the first Galileo system satellites, the first lift-off of Soyuz from Kourou and the maiden flight of Vega should also be pencilled in your diaries.
