World Space Week – Celebrating the Partnership between the UK and Australia

Taking place annually from October 4th-10th, World Space Week is celebrated internationally in support of space exploration and technology innovation.

In acknowledgement of this event, we reflect on the achievements of the UK and Australia and the collaborative ambition to strengthen both space sectors.

Signed in 2021, the United Kingdom and Australia established the UK-Australia Space Bridge Arrangement.

This partnership has since increased space cooperation between the UK and Australia, promoting the exchange of knowledge.

Our High Commissioner Vicki Treadell, celebrates the ongoing collaboration between the UK and Australia.

“In three years, the UK-Australia Space Bridge Arrangement has demonstrated that our long-standing relationship continues to thrive”

“The international cooperation between both nations has unlocked many opportunities, facilitating developments in space research, education, and trade”

Vicki looks back on the Space Bridge Arrangement, advocating for continued multilateralism, honouring the success both the UK and Australia have accomplished.
