Space Renaissance Italia announces its third National Congress, “Cislunar economy and civil space development, the key role of Italy”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Catanzaro, 26 May 2025

After the 2014 congress at Politecnico, Milano and the 2018 congress at INAF, Bologna, Space Renaissance Italia announces its third National Congress, “Cislunar economy and civil space development, the key role of Italy”, which will take place under the High Patronage of the European Parliament on 13-14 June 2025 at the “Magna Græcia” University, Catanzaro.

In a world marked by economic and environmental crises and horrible wars, the civilian space development is a fundamental strategy to relaunch the evolution and really sustainable development of civilization. Reusable launchers, now a reality for a decade, have drastically reduced the costs of space missions, opening the market to new opportunities and new entrepreneurial initiatives.

Italy, historically a protagonist in space research, contributes with advanced technologies at 360°, from the ISS to the Lunar Gateway, up to the development of safe human space habitats.

This Congress will address key issues such as: sustainable terrestrial and space energy supply, orbital data centers, human rights in space, orbital debris, and the role of civilian space development as a tool for peace.

In its capacity as observer at COPUOS (Committee for the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, United Nations, Vienna) Space Renaissance proposes an 18th Sustainable Development Goal: “Space for All, on Earth and Beyond”, to be integrated into the UN 2030 agenda. The ARTEMIS Consortium and the International Lunar Research Station are also proposed to plant a UN flag on the Moon, during the next lunar missions, next to the national flags.
