Ministry Of Space, Finally

March 23rd, 2010

The UK will formally launch its new space agency on Tuesday. The nation has been alone among the major industrialised nations in not having an executive body to direct its activities beyond the Earth’s surface. The new organisation is expected to take control of the money spent on space by government departments and science funding agencies.
