Space Education & Skills

Children, we are told, are inspired by two things: space and dinosaurs. Britain’s industry is helping to inspire our next generation into science and engineering, boosting the skillset of the nation. The industry’s award winning education outreach activities help to spread the benefits of our world leadership into schools and universities across the UK.

UK Space already employs Britain’s most highly skilled manufacturing workforce. But it is also the most inspired workforce in Britain. No other sector offers young people the chance to help find life on other planets and to help save life on our own planet. UK space science is undeniably the best in the world, and helps to underpin Britain’s world leading science base.
