Space and Sweden
Sweden is home to a diverse space ecosystem that combines internationally recognised research with advanced industrial capabilities. Swedish organisations contribute to space science, Earth observation, telecommunications and exploration missions, while facilities such as Esrange provide important capabilities for sounding rockets, balloon campaigns and future launch services. Swedish industry is particularly active in spacecraft systems, propulsion, instruments and mission technologies. Through ESA, Sweden continues to support scientific discovery and the development of innovative space solutions for Europe and beyond.
