The Space theme in FP7

Space in the EU Research Framework Programmes

Space a new activity, first introduced by the 6th Framework Programme under the Aeronautics & Space theme - FP6 (2002-2006):

About € 230 million over five years. Earth observation (GMES), Satcom, Satnav Focused on applications and services

With own Theme in FP7 (2007 – 2013) About € 1.4 billion over 7 years GMES + Strengthening Space Foundations Services, but also technology development

The FP7 Space Programme Main topics I. GMES (85% of budget):• Land, Marine, Atmosphere, & Emergency,

Security, Climate Change• Major investment in the space component and

operational servicesII. Strengthening Space Foundations (15% of

budget):• Space Technologies, Exploration, Space

Transportation, Space Science Upstream research, downstream research

(e.g., data exploitation)

Strengthening Space Foundations• Support to research in space science and exploration

Technology development enabling exploration (access to planets, moving on planetary surfaces, sample return)

Exploitation of data from European missions

• New concepts in space transportation, space technologies

• Critical technologies for European Non-Dependence• Research into reducing the vulnerability of space-

based systems Space weather – forecast, resilience Debris – tracking, mitigation

To provide opportunities for those actors/activities which are currently not catered for yet at ESA or national level, thereby adding

SME participation

• Priority for FP7, especially DG ENTR• Whilst (so far) not mandatory in our call

topics, regarded always as a plus during evaluations

Last call statistics:

in ranked (successfull proposals) list

• 22% of participation

• receiving 18% of EU budget

Opportunities for third countries to participate in FP7

Space is a global endeavour Participation in ALL above areas is encouraged to

researchers and research organisations from all third countries

The active participation of third country partners, e.g. from Russia represents an added value

Financing is possible, if the contribution is essential for reaching the objective of the project

Strong focus on cooperation with Russia, South Africa, Latin America (see ICPC list)

GMES Security: exploring operational GMES Security: exploring operational governance optionsgovernance options• Need identification of long-term options for governance

(sensitivity issues, data procurement, interfacing with CFSP users)

• Already acknowledgement that EUSC has specific security expertise to contribute

• However, need to support the dialogue between GMES and EUSC stakeholders (esp. national authorities, EU institutions) through a Support Action providing overview of positions and options

• Note - involvement of stakeholders is key!

• CSA Project: EU contribution of EUR 1 million € upper eligibility limit

R&D Topics under GMESR&D Topics under GMES

• Focus on continuity of GMES core service (fast-track services from Call 1 will finish end 2011).

• Land + emergency will be addressed outside FP under GMES Regulation

• FP7 Space Call 4 will still support Marine + Atmosphere GMES Services in two large scale projects

• Aim is to move away from “validation of pre-operational services” and move towards “setting up of prototype operations”

Topics: SPA.2011.1.05-01 - SPA.2011.1.05-02Topics: SPA.2011.1.05-01 - SPA.2011.1.05-02 Prototype operations – Marine & AtmospherePrototype operations – Marine & Atmosphere

• Aim: Full operationality by 2014• Use of combined CP-CSA funding instrument to

be able to address actual operations (CSA) and limited R&D coupled to those operations (CP)

• Supportive R&D with fast response time to meet the short term needs of the operational chain

• Operational results to serve the GMES user community and researchers (“support activity” must support research!)

Exploration• technologies relevant to space exploration, focus on

robotic exploration• research on innovative instrumentation, mobility on

planetary surfaces, in-space and from-surface propulsion, in-space power generation, innovative techniques for survivability in space

• suitable micro-propulsion systems• advanced concepts for autonomous distributed and co-

operating systems• open to international cooperation


Topic SPA.2011.2.2-01 –Space transportation technologies

• To increase the innovation capacity of future developments by proposing and evaluating new concepts and disruptive technologies Launcher concepts Propellants Materials and simulation Power systems Weight reduction


Topic SPA.2011.2.2-02 –Space “critical” technologies

• … Europe needs non-dependent access to critical space technologies…

• … emphasis on medium term impact…• … technologies surveyed by Joint EC-EDA-

ESA Task Force…• … technologies not covered by table are out

of scope of call…


“Critical Technologies” – meaning :

• “Independence” would imply that all needed space technologies are developed in Europe.

• “Non-dependence” refers to the possibility for Europe to have free, unrestricted access to any required space technology.

• The objective of this action is to contribute to ensure European Non-dependence.

Further explanations – see document on Cordis Call web page:

Topic SPA.2011.2.3-01 –Prevention of impacts from Near Earth Objects (NEOs) on our Planet

• … to assess the risk of potential threats of NEOs as asteroids and comets …

• … NEOs material properties, their stability and orbit/position relative to Earth can be studied…

• … proposals should explore the feasibility of methodologies and capabilities necessary to prevent collision on Earth…
