The "Telespazio Technology Contest" begins

Two new first-generation Galileo satellites, numbers 33 and 34, were successfully launched today aboard an Ariane 6 launcher at 06:01 (CET) Italian time from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana. Galileo is Europe’s global satellite navigation system, developed by the European Union with the technical and industrial support of the European Space Agency (ESA).

On the occasion of 2025 Italian National Space Day, Leonardo, with e-GEOS (a joint venture 20% owned by the Italian Space Agency and 80% by Telespazio, Leonardo Group) and Telespazio (67% owned by Leonardo and 33% by Thales) present the eighteenth "Love Planet Earth" calendar, representing environmental sustainability through images taken by the COSMO-SkyMed satellites operated by the Italian Space Agency and the Italian Ministry of Defence.

Leonardo, Telespazio and Intuitive Machines have signed a strategic cooperation agreement to develop interoperable infrastructures and provide communications and navigation services in support of lunar exploration.

Telespazio hosted the Agritech Living Lab at the Fucino Space Centre, an event organized within the framework of the Agritech Project, funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MUR) under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), supported by the European Union’s NextGenerationEU initiative.
