 Canadian Space Agency
For more than four decades, Canada has been harnessing the power and potential of space. The Canadian Space Agency was formed in 1989 to actively champion the Canadian Space Program and promote the peaceful use of space to advance science and technology and improve the quality of life.
To meet the evolving needs of citizens, the Canadian Space Agency partners with government, industry, universities, and international organizations. There are four key ways Canada and Canadians are using and benefiting from space.
- Earth Observation
To look down upon the Earth to observe, monitor and protect life below
- Space Science and Exploration
To look out into the depths of space to explore, learn and discover more about the universe, as well as our place in it
- Satellite Communications
To look upon space as a means of communicating with each other by relaying information via satellites
- Space Awareness and Learning
To look to space as a source for inspiration to inform Canadians about their country's advances in science and technology, and increase science literacy among our citizens
