The European Space Agency Buissness Incubator Center (ESA BIC) hosted a meet-and-greet event at Ideon on April 25th. Local professionals got to know more about ESA BIC and about a few of the ongoing space projects in Lund. This was well received by the people attending the event, and rumor has it that ESA BIC will arrange more such events in the future.

Astronomers invited members of the public to look at the spring skies through the teaching telescopes. There are a number of both historical and modern telescopes at Lund Observatory. Usually these are used for teaching purposes but every now and then the astronomers decide to stay at work late into the evening in order to give members of the public the chance for some stargazing. This spring thr

There is so much more to space than just rocket science. So said Deborah Lygonis, CEO Friendbase AB and Investor Relations, Innovatum, at a national hybrid lunch meeting titled ”The Future of the Space Industry”, which was jointly organised by ESA BIC and Women In Space Sweden (WISS) on May the fourth. She went on to explain how the space industry loosly divides into ’Upstream’ (including rocket
