In-Space Operations and Services (ISOS) enhances the adaptivity, resilience, and sustainability of space assets through satellite servicing, assembly, manufacturing, recycling, and logistics. The EU recognises ISOS as strategically vital for infrastructure protection and commercialisation.

This document guides applicants on the In-Space Operations and Services (ISOS) pilot mission, detailing objectives, requirements, and boundary conditions. It includes the mission statement and perspectives for ISOS as an EU strategic priority, complementing the work programme topic descriptions.

EU Space Surveillance and Tracking (EU SST) is the cornerstone of EU STM strategy. EU SST fosters innovation and supports European industrial capabilities for strategic autonomy. The EU Industry and Start-ups Forum on STM (EISF) unites stakeholders to define R&D priorities.

The EU approach on Space Traffic Management (STM) proposed by the Commission and the High Representative therefore aims at keeping space operations safe, space orbits usable, and space accessible for decades to come while ensuring and further fostering the competitiveness of the EU space industry.

Space Situational Awareness (SSA) provides accurate information on the space environment, ensuring uninterrupted space services for EU citizens. Essential for strategic autonomy, SSA takes a holistic approach to monitor main space hazards: collisions, fragmentation, re-entry, space weather, and near-Earth objects.

IOD/IOV services enable testing of space technologies in orbit, accelerating innovation and market access. Through the CASSINI initiative, the EU supports start-ups, research organizations, and industry while developing critical space skills for the future.

One of the actions goals was to provide a methodology to interact with national coastal stakeholders to collect their needs and to map existing national services.

The action " COPERNICUS FOR MARINE SPATIAL PLANNING AND EU DIRECTIVES" analysed how Copernicus Marine Services can contribute to the effective implementation of EU Marine Directives.

Space Traffic Management (STM) is a key EU strategic challenge. This study defines STM at EU level, maps the global ecosystem, reviews regulatory frameworks, and assesses three policy actions from the 2022 Joint Communication: licensing toolbox, incentive measures for standards, and STM legislation.

This report proposes an EU Space Label—a voluntary mechanism to promote adherence to common STM standards for space safety and sustainability. It maps the STM landscape, reviews existing standards, assesses feasibility, and provides a blueprint and roadmap for implementation.

This study supports EU Space Traffic Management policy to ensure sustainable, safe space use and EU strategic autonomy. It assessed existing STM standards and guidelines, evaluated feasibility of an EU-level mechanism, and developed a blueprint for implementing an EU Space Label framework.

The Pact for the Future, adopted at the 2024 UN Summit, is the most wide-ranging international agreement in decades. It covers sustainable development, peace, climate, AI governance, and space traffic management, with annexes on digital cooperation and future generations.
