The report "Framework for National Space Missions"

The report Framework for National Space Missions is now available for download below. 

It has been prepared on behalf of the Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science and presents a set of recommendations for how Denmark can establish a long-term national space mission programme — with stable funding, transparent mission selection, and clear governance structures.

The report is the outcome of a process that ran throughout 2025, drawing on input from across the Danish space sector: universities, private companies,  and other key institutions. 

Through a national survey, a sector-wide workshop at Sandbjerg Gods, and review seminars in Aarhus and Copenhagen, the report was developed with contributions from a broad cross-section of the sector, whose knowledge and perspectives form its foundation.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who took part — your engagement has been invaluable!
