The Italian eye in space sees the new Genoa Bridge for the first time

The Sardinia Deep Space Antenna of the Italian Space Agency (ASI) is taking a decisive step toward becoming a strategic asset for Deep Space and Near Earth missions. Telespazio (Leonardo Group) has successfully completed the final milestone "EMM Delivery M4," achieving 100% of the objectives set for the activities entrusted by ASI as part of the Earth, Moon and Mars (EMM) project, funded by the Ministry of University and Research through PNRR (National Recovery and Resilience Plan) funds.

Earth Observation, satellite constellations, space operations: Telespazio Iberica and CEiiA, an engineering and product development centre based in Portugal, are joining forces through a Letter of Intent aimed at strengthening the Iberian space ecosystem.

Space economy, education and territory take centre stage at the closing event of Space Camp, a project selected and supported by the Fund for the Digital Republic. Space Camp is delivered by Associazione Italiacamp ETS together with Telespazio (Leonardo Group), Innovalley and the "Alessandro Volta" institute in Pescara, the "Luigi di Savoia" institute in Chieti and the "Ettore Majorana" institute in Avezzano, with the scientific contribution of the British Interplanetary Society.

Telespazio, a Leonardo Group company, carried out a Moon-Bounce experiment on 25 May, consisting of the transmission of a radio signal from an antenna at its Lario Space Centre, in the province of Como, towards the lunar surface. The signal, reflected by our natural satellite, was sent back towards Earth and received by the Fucino Space Centre in Abruzzo, and potentially by any antenna in line-of-sight of the Moon at that moment.
