ESA highlights 2020
2020 has been another year of progress for ESA. The launch and commissioning of Solar Orbiter heralded a new era of space science, whilst Eutelsat Konnect revolutionised telecommunications. The new Vega SSMS began a cost-effective new launch system for small satellites, deploying exciting new technologies such as PhiSat and ESAIL. ESA’s Earth Observation activities were also showcased, with the launch of Sentinel-6 and an international effort to monitor the environmental and economic impact of COVID-19. Gaia and Cheops yielded new findings about our universe; ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano returned successfully from orbit. With a lunar programme agreement signed and new steps being taken to control debris, ESA is set to begin 2021 at the forefront of space exploration.

ESA I love your explorations. Please deploy all this great technology just for the collective good and freedom of mankind. Take care, stay responsible. Greetings from Z SCIENCE LAB !
You always hear about elon musk's SpaceX trashing another 50 satelites all over earth's orbit, you never hear about European Space agency Cleanup contracts and regulations for earth defense from asteroids, what is wrong with us?
