Britain’s space industry is quietly booming — now it’s time to launch it to new heights
Britain's space industry is booming and the UK Space Agency aims to make the country a leading space economy. The UK's space tech industry holds 7% of the global market and British technology is present in many space missions, including the Artemis mission. Investment in the UK's space sector is vital for economic growth, with 16% of the UK's GDP dependent on space technology, impacting AI, climate solutions, and defence systems. The UK remains part of the European Space Agency (ESA) after Brexit.
