RDS103 - Exploration and exploitation of space

This division is a socioeconomic objective which covers all civil space research and experimental development (R&D) activities with objectives related to the R&D in exploration of space, space laboratories, space travel and launch systems. Although civil space R&D activities are not always concerned with particular objectives, they frequently have a specific goal, such as the advancement of knowledge (e.g. astronomy) or relate to particular applications (e.g. telecommunications satellites or earth observation). This objective does not include corresponding R&D activities for defence purposes.
