INTRODUCTION
The European Commission adopted a Communication ‘Towards a space strategy for
the European Union that benefits its citizens’1 on 4th April 2011, reflecting the
crucial role of space for the economy and society. It sets out the main objectives for
European space policy, including two EU space programmes (Galileo, the European
satellite navigation system; and GMES (Global monitoring for Environment and Security),
the protection of space infrastructures, and space exploration. The Communication also
calls for the development of an industrial space policy in close co-operation with Member States.
The Commission identified the following objectives for the EU space strategy: promote
technological scientific progress; foster innovation and industrial competitiveness; ensure
that European citizens fully benefit from European space applications; and strengthen
Europe’s role in space at an international level. The priority actions of the space strategy
are the flagship EU space programmes Galileo and Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES).
Galileo will be Europe’s own global navigation satellite system, providing a highly
accurate, global positioning service under civil control. The launch of the first fully
operational Galileo satellites took place on 21 October 2011; the full Galileo system will
include 30 satellites. Early Galileo Services will be made available gradually from 2014
onwards. The service used most by the general public (personal navigation), will be free of charge.
GMES is a European system for monitoring the state of the Earth providing
continuous accurate and reliable data and information in six main fields: marine
environment, land, atmosphere, emergency management, security and climate change
monitoring. GMES uses satellites to obtain data and images. It can yield a better
understanding of changes on our planet and how that might influence our daily lives. It
will also provide services to help improving the security of citizens and manage crisis situations.
The objective of this survey is to gain insight into Europeans’ awareness, expectations
and wishes regarding space based services and their opinion on the role of the EU in
development of space activities and space exploration.
The outline of this report is as follows.
Awareness of EU programmes Galileo, GMES and of space collision risks

This survey was carried out by TNS Political & Social network in the 27 Member States of
the European Union between 9th and 12th July 2012. Some 25.536 respondents from
different social and demographic groups were interviewed by telephone in their mother
tongue on behalf of DG Enterprise and Industry. The methodology used is that of
Eurobarometer surveys as carried out by the Directorate-General for Communication
(“Research and Speechwriting” Unit)2. A technical note on the manner in which
interviews were conducted by the Institutes within the TNS Political & Social network is
appended as an annex to this report. Also included are the interview methods and confidence intervals3.

1 AWARENESS AND EXPECTATIONS
This chapter first examines Europeans’ awareness of the EU space programmes Galileo
and GMES - described in the introduction - and also Europeans’ awareness of the risks
associated with collision of satellites.
Next, the chapter discusses Europeans’ expectations regarding space-based services:
innovative terrestrial applications; industrial competitiveness, growth and jobs in the EU;
and European policies such as transport, environment and security.
1.1 Awareness of EU space programmes and of satellite
collision risks
The interviewees were asked whether they had ever heard of risks related to collision
between satellites or between satellites and space debris (space debris are pieces of
rockets and of satellites); and whether they had ever heard of the two EU programmes
Galileo (the European Radio-navigation System by satellite similar to the US GPS) and
GMES (abbreviation of Global Monitoring for Environment and Security, the European
Earth observation systems by satellite).4
4 Q1 Have you ever heard of … Q1.1 Galileo, the European Radio-navigation System by satellite (similar to the US GPS)?
Q1.2 The European Earth observation systems by satellite (called GMES- Global Monitoring for Environment and security)?
Q1.3 Risks related to collision between satellites or between satellites and space debris (space debris are pieces of rockets and of satellites)?

A majority (57%) of Europeans have heard of Galileo, while almost four in ten (38%)
have heard of GMES. Six out of ten Europeans (60%) have heard of risks related to
collision between satellites or between satellites and space debris.
1.1.1 Awareness of Galileo
Over half (57%) of the Europeans interviewed have heard of Galileo, the European
satellite navigation system, similar to the US GPS. However, over four in ten interviewees
(42%) had never heard of it and another 1% was unable to formulate an answer.
Country-by-country analysis reveals that the highest percentages of respondents who
have heard of Galileo are found in Germany (76%), Austria (72%), the Czech Republic
and Poland (both 66%). Member States with the smallest proportions of respondents
who have heard of Galileo are Cyprus (32%) and Latvia (38%), followed at some
distance by the United Kingdom and Hungary (both 43%).

Socio-demographic breakdown shows that gender, age, education and occupation are
of influence. More men than women (66% vs. 48%) have heard of Galileo. The older the
interviewees, the more likely they have heard of it: 62% of the oldest respondents (55+)
compared to 41% of the youngest (15-24). The longer educated, the more likely the
respondents have heard of Galileo, with 66% of those who followed education till the age
of twenty or beyond, compared to 46% of those who had finished school at the age of
fifteen or earlier. Regarding occupation: self-employed respondents stand out as 65% of
them have heard of Galileo (compared to the average of 57%).

1.1.2 Awareness of GMES
Almost four in ten respondents (38%) have heard of the European earth observation
systems by satellite, GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security). However,
the majority of Europeans (61%) have never heard of it. Another 1% was unable to
answer the question.
In 2009 a similar question was asked on Space activities in a survey5. At that time, less
than a quarter of Europeans (22%) indicated that they were aware of the European Earth
observation satellites and that they knew what it was. 34% said they were aware of it
but without being sure of what it was and 42% did not know this system.
Country-by-country analysis shows that Romania and Slovakia stand out with around
two-thirds of respondents (69% and 65% respectively) knowing of GMES, followed at
some distance by Italy (57%) and Portugal (54%). Member States with smallest
proportions of respondents who have heard of GMES include the UK, Sweden (both 16%)
and Denmark (17%).
Those surveyed in the NMS12 are more likely to know of GMES (51% have heard of it)
than those in the EU15 countries (35%).
5 Q3. Have you heard about the European Earth Observation satellites? POSSIBLE ANSWERS: Yes, and I know
what they do; Yes, but I don’t know what they do; No, Don’t know FL272, Space activities in the European Union, http://ec.europa.eu/public_opinion/flash/fl_272_en.pdf

Socio-demographic breakdown reveals influence only of age. The older the
respondents, the more likely they know of GMES: 29% of the youngest respondents aged
15-24 compared with 47% of the oldest respondents aged 55+.
1.1.3 Awareness of space collision risks
Six in ten Europeans (60%) have heard of risks related to collision between satellites or
between satellites and space debris (space debris are pieces of rockets and of satellites),
whereas almost one in four (39%) never heard of it. Another 1% was unable to answer
this question.
Country-by-country analysis reveals that respondents in Germany (79%), Austria
(73%) and the Netherlands (72%) are most often aware of these space collision risks.

On the other end of the spectrum, Cyprus stands out with only one-third of respondents
(33%) being aware of these risks, followed at some distance by the United Kingdom
(41%), Greece (42%) and Ireland (43%).
Socio-demographic analysis shows differences for gender, age and education. More
men (65%) than women (56%) are aware of space collision risks. The higher the age,
the more aware of these risks: only 45% of the youngest respondents aged 15-24
compared to 67% of the oldest respondents aged 55+. Turning to education, the longer
the respondents are educated the more aware: 55% of respondents who had left school
at the age of fifteen or earlier compared to 66% of respondents who followed education
till the age of twenty or beyond.

Almost three-quarters (73%) of the interviewees who have heard of Galileo are aware of
space collision risks compared to four in ten of interviewees who do not know about
Galileo. Accordingly, almost three-quarters (74%) of the respondents who know about
the existence of GMES are aware of space collision risks compared to just over half
(52%) of those who never heard of GMES.

1.2 Expected contribution of space based services
- At least three-quarters of Europeans expect space-based services to be
important for innovative terrestrial applications; industrial competitiveness,
growth and jobs in the EU; and EU policies such as transport, environment and
security -
In the previous section we investigated Europeans’ awareness of the EU space
programmes. This section focuses on Europeans’ expectations regarding space activities.
Respondents were asked how important they think space derived services and space
technologies are for the following three fields.6
industrial competiveness, growth and creation of jobs in the EU
the development of innovative terrestrial applications, such as remote medical
assistance
EU policies such as transport, environment and security
At least three-quarters of the Europeans surveyed expect space derived services and
space technology to be very or fairly important for the development of innovative
terrestrial applications (81%), industrial competiveness, growth and creation of jobs in
the EU (76%), and EU policies such as transport, environment, and security (75%).
6 Q2 How important do you think space derived services and space technologies are for the following: Q2.1 Industrial competiveness, growth and creation of jobs in the EU
Q2.2 The development of innovative terrestrial applications (for example, remote medical assistance) Q2.3 EU policies (e.g. transport, environment, security…)
FLASH EUROBAROMETER 355 ‘Space activities’
15
1.2.1 Innovative terrestrial applications
We saw that a large majority (81%) of Europeans think space derived services and space
technologies are important for the development of innovative terrestrial applications (for
example, remote medical assistance): 43% even think it is very important and 38% think
it is fairly important. Conversely, a small minority (14%) think it is not important for
innovative terrestrial applications: 10% say not very important and 4% think not at all important. Another 5% say they don’t know.
In 2009, a similar question was asked on Space activities in a survey7. 74% of
respondents agreed that technologies derived from space activities contributes to
developing innovative terrestrial applications (24% strongly agreed and 50% to some extent).
Country-by-country analysis shows that in every single Member State, an absolute
majority of respondents believe space derived services and space technologies are
important for the development of innovative terrestrial applications, such as remote
medical assistance.
The largest proportions of interviewees who think it is important are observed in Greece
(88%), Romania (87%), Belgium, Hungary (both 86%), Italy, Luxembourg, Slovakia,
and Bulgaria (each 84%). Conversely, the smallest proportions are in Denmark (58%), followed at some distance by Austria (69%) and Estonia (70%).
Socio-demographic breakdown shows that age and education have a slight influence;
within all groups the majority view is that space derived services and space technologies
are important for the development of innovative terrestrial applications.
7 Q2 Please tell me how much do you agree or disagree with the following statements: -A Space activities contribute to industrial competiveness, growth, and creation of jobs in the European Union -B Technologies derived from space activities contribute to developing innovative terrestrial applications ANSWERS POSSIBLE: Strongly agree, Agree, Disagree, Disagree strongly, Don’t know FL272, Space activities in the European Union, http://ec.europa.eu/public_opinion/flash/fl_272_en.pdf

The oldest respondents aged 55+ are the least likely (77%) and the youngest
respondents aged 15-24 are most likely (83%) to say it is important. The longer the
interviewees are educated, the more likely they think it is important: 74% of the
respondents who had left school at the age of 15 or earlier compared to 84% of
respondents who were educated until the age of 20 or beyond.

1.2.2 Industrial competitiveness, growth and jobs in the EU
Over three-quarters (76%) of Europeans think that space derived services and space
technologies are important for industrial competitiveness, growth and creation of jobs in
the EU: 38% say very important and another 38% say fairly important. However, almost
one-fifth (19%) of Europeans believe it is not important: 14% say not very important
and 5% say not at all important. Another 5% have no opinion on this matter.
In 2009 a similar question was asked on Space activities in a survey8. 64% of
respondents agreed that space activities contribute to industrial competiveness, growth
and creation of jobs in the European Union (16% strongly agreed, 48% agreed).
Country-by-country analysis shows that in every single Member State, over half of
respondents think space derived services and space technologies are important for
industrial competiveness, growth and creation of jobs in the EU. Largest proportions of
interviewees having this view are observed in Italy and Romania (both 85%), Hungary
(82%), Bulgaria (81%), Portugal (80%), Malta and Belgium (both 79%). By contrast,
smallest proportions are in Denmark (54%), Estonia (55%) and the Czech Republic
(57%).

Socio-demographic analysis does not yield significant differences between groups.
1.2.3 EU policies such as transport, environment and
security
Three-quarters (75%) of Europeans think space derived services and space technologies
are important for EU policies such as transport, environment, and security: 34% say very
important and 41% say fairly important. Conversely, one in five (20%) Europeans
believe it is not important: 14% say not very important and 6% say not at all important. A further 5% are unable to form an opinion.
Country-by-country analysis shows that in every single Member State, an absolute
majority of respondents think space derived services and space technologies are
important for EU policies such as transport, environment, and security, with the exception of the Netherlands.

The highest percentages of respondents with this view are found in Bulgaria (87%),
Hungary (84%), Belgium, Romania (both 83%), Italy (82%), Ireland, France and Malta
(each 81%). Conversely, Denmark (48%) stands out with the lowest percentage, followed at a distance by Sweden and Estonia (both 65%).
Respondents in the NMS12 countries are somewhat more inclined than those in the EU15
countries to think space derived services and space technologies are important for EU policies such as transport, environment, and security (79% vs. 74%).
Socio-demographic analysis reveals influence only of education: the older the
respondents, the more likely they are: 70% of the respondents who had finished school
at the age of fifteen compared to 77% of respondents who were educated until the age of
twenty or beyond.

2 NAVIGATION BASED SERVICES
Half of the Europeans are using navigation systems;
more than half of Europeans wish for navigation-based services aimed at safety
Having seen Europeans’ awareness of EU space programmes and their expectations
regarding space-derived services and technology, we now turn to Europeans’ actual use
of navigation systems and their wishes in the field of navigation-based services.
2.1 Current use of navigation systems
The interviewees were asked whether they are using navigation systems in their car or
for any other purpose, such as hiking or biking: a Personal Navigation Device; a
Smartphone with navigation software; and a built-in navigation system integrated in the dashboard.9
Almost three in ten Europeans (29%) are using a Personal Navigation Device. Almost
one-fifth (18%) are using a Smartphone with navigation software. Over one in ten (13%) are using a built-in navigation system, integrated in the dashboard.
A small minority (7%) do not use these navigation systems yet, but they do plan to
acquire one. However, a considerable proportion (41%) of Europeans are not using one
of these navigation systems and do not plan to acquire one either. A further 2% say they
don’t know.
To summarize, 50% of Europeans use at least one of the three navigation systems, 48% are not using any of them, and 2% say they don’t know.
9 Q5 Are you using a navigation system in your car or for any other purpose, such as hiking or biking?
(ROTATE – MULTIPLE ANSWERS POSSIBLE)
FLASH EUROBAROMETER 355 ‘Space activities’
22
Country-by-country analysis shows that a Personal Navigation Device is used most
often by interviewees in five north-western countries: the Netherlands (45%), Denmark
(43%), Belgium (42%), Germany (40%) and Luxembourg (35%). It is used least often by respondents in Malta (9%), Bulgaria, Greece (both 12%) and Cyprus (15%).
A Smartphone with navigation software is used most frequently in Denmark (34%),
Sweden (30%) and Finland (29%); by contrast, this is used least frequently in Romania
(8%) and Malta, Cyprus, and Portugal (each 9%).
A built-in navigation system, integrated in the dashboard, is used far most often by
interviewees in Luxembourg (43%), at distance followed by those in Belgium (23%);
conversely, dashboard integrated navigation systems are used least by respondents in Malta (4%), Romania and Hungary (both 5%).
Non-users of navigation systems who are planning to acquire one are most numerous in
Bulgaria (22%), Romania (18%) and Cyprus (17%), whereas they are least numerous in the Netherlands (3%) and Germany (4%).
No (I do not use a navigation system) and I do not plan to acquire one is the option cited
most often in 22 of the 27 Member States; exceptions are five north-western countries:
Denmark, Luxembourg, the Netherlands; Belgium, and Germany. The highest
percentages of non-users of navigation systems who do not plan to acquire one are
found in Malta (67%), Greece, Portugal (both 56%) and Cyprus (53%); conversely
lowest percentages of these non-users are observed in Denmark (42%), Luxembourg (23%), the Netherlands (26%), Belgium (30%) and Germany (33%).
In summary, Member States with the largest proportions of interviewees using at least
one of the navigation systems include Denmark (72%), Luxembourg (71%), the
Netherlands (70%), Germany (63%) and Belgium (61%); smallest proportions are found
in Malta (21%), Bulgaria (26%), Romania (27%), Cyprus and Greece (both 28%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals the influence of gender, age, education and occupation, and slight influence of subjective urbanisation.
Personal Navigation Devices are more likely to be used by men (33%), respondents from
the two mid-age groups 25-39 and 40-54 (33% and 35% respectively), self-employed
interviewees and employees (both 37%); conversely, Personal Navigation Devices are
less likely to be used by women (25%), the oldest respondents aged 55+ (23%) and the
youngest respondents aged 15-24 (26%), and respondents who had left school at the
age of 15 or younger (19%).
Smartphones with navigation software are used more by men (23%), respondents from
the younger groups aged 15-24 and 25-39 (33% and 29% respectively), self-employed
interviewees (22%), employees (25%), and inhabitants of large towns (22%); by
contrast, such smartphones are used less by women (13%), the oldest respondents aged 55+ (6%), unemployed respondents (13%), and rural villagers (14%).
A built-in navigation system, integrated in the dashboard, is somewhat more likely to be
used by men (16%), interviewees aged 40-54 (17%) and much more by self-employed
respondents (23%); conversely, built-it is less likely to be used by women (11%),
respondents aged 15-24 (10%), and respondents who had finished school at the age of 15 or younger (8%).

2.2 Navigation-based services wished for
All respondents were asked which navigation-based services accessible via handheld
devices they find or would find most useful. The interviewees were presented with eight
different services and were asked to choose at most three.10
The top three navigation-based services, cited by absolute majorities of Europeans are
search and rescue operations of stranded people - skiers, hikers, fishermen (60%); help
people with disabilities, e.g. help blind and partially sighted people to get around safely
(59%); and real-time information about dangerous situations on the road, e.g. traffic congestion, accidents (53%). The top three services have safety as a common goal.
Smaller but sizeable proportions of Europeans (would) find it useful to have weather
forecasts and news in the area where they are (30%) and information on the timetables of public transport in the area where they are (18%).
Small minorities cite social networking (10%), real time information about available
parking spaces (8%), and information about nearby restaurants, hotels and theatres (5%).

Socio-demographic breakdown reveals some influence of age, education and
occupation and minor influence of gender mainly on the three navigation-based services
aimed at safety.
Search and rescue operations of stranded people is more likely to be mentioned by
respondents aged 40-54 (65% compared to the average of 60%)) and least likely by
manual workers (55%).
Help people with disabilities is the only navigation-based service investigated in this
survey that involves a significant gender difference: more women than men find this
useful (63% vs. 54%). Further, this service is cited most often by respondents who
finished school at the age of 15 or earlier (70%); conversely it is mentioned least often
by the younger respondents aged 15-24 and 25-39 (53% and 54% respectively), the
better educated until the age of 20 or longer (54%) and self-employed interviewees
(51%).

Real-time information about dangerous situations on the road is found to be useful most
often by respondents aged 25-39 and 40-54 (58% and 57% respectively), and by self-
employed interviewees and employees (both 58%). It is least likely to be cited by the
youngest respondents aged 15-24 (47%) and interviewees who had left school at the age of 15 or younger (48%).
Other salient group differences are that weather forecasts and news in the area where
you are, is least likely to be mentioned by respondents who finished school at the age of
15 or younger (24% compared to the average of 30%). Information on the timetables of
public transport in the area where you are is mentioned most often by the youngest
respondents aged 15-24 (26% compared to the average of 18%); this is also true of social networking (15% compared to the average of 10%).
Cross-analysis with use of navigation systems shows some differences between
users and non-users. Users of navigation systems are more likely than non-users to cite
search and rescue operations of stranded people (63% vs. 57%) and real-time
information about dangerous situations on the road (60% vs. 47%); users are however less likely than non-users to mention help people with disabilities (55% vs. 62%).

3 ROLE OF THE EU
The preceding chapter described Europeans’ use of navigation systems and their wishes
regarding specific navigation-based services. This chapter elaborates further on
Europeans’ wishes with respect to European space activity.
The following topics will be discussed in this chapter:
Priority areas for space European space activity
Role of the EU in developing space monitoring systems and space exploration
Level of EU involvement in space exploration
3.1 Priority areas for European space activity
The interviewees were informed that space can contribute to a wide range of activities
and they were presented with seven options; then they were asked to choose two options that they would like the European space activity to focus on as a priority.11
The options chosen most often, each by around one-third of the respondents, are health
improvement (36%) and climate change understanding (33%). The next most cited
options, each by at least one-fourth of the interviewees, are prevention and management

of natural and man-made risks (28%) and energy management - oil, gas, electricity (25%).
Two other options are mentioned by at least one-fifth of the interviewees: ecology and
food production (22%) and education (20%). A minority cited transport and mobility
(13%). A further 1% did not make a choice and another 2% say they don’t know.
Country-by-country breakdown shows the following differences.
Health improvement is chosen most often in Greece (53%), Romania (50%), Malta and
Portugal (both 49%). Overall, this option ranked first in 13 out of 27 Member States.
Interviewees in Sweden (24%), Poland and Estonia (both 25%) are least likely to cite this option.
Climate change understanding is mentioned most often in Sweden (55%), Germany
(51%), and Denmark (50%). Overall this option ranked first in 9 of the 27 Member
States. Romania (13%) stands out as the country with the smallest percentage of
respondents citing climate change understanding, followed at distance by Poland and Hungary (both 22%).
Prevention and management of natural and man-made risks is mentioned most often in
Poland (47%) and Hungary (42%); conversely it is least likely to be mentioned in Slovenia (13%), Cyprus, the UK (each 14%), Greece and Austria (both 15%).
Energy management (oil, gas, electricity) is cited most often by interviewees in the UK
(33%) and Denmark (32%); by contrast this is least the case in Bulgaria and Estonia
(16%).
Ecology and food production is most likely to be cited in Slovenia (41%), Slovakia (37%)
and the Czech Republic (35%); it is also the most of all cited option in these countries. Conversely, it is least likely to be mentioned in Germany (14%) and Portugal (17%).
Education is most likely to be chosen in Romania and Malta (32%); least likely in Lithuania (10%) and Austria (12%).
Transport and mobility is most likely to be mentioned by interviewees in Austria (22%),
Latvia and the Czech Republic (both 20%). Conversely, transport and mobility is
mentioned least often in the smaller-island-countries Greece (6%), Cyprus (7%) and Malta (8%).
Interviewees in the NMS12 countries are more likely than those in the EU15 countries to
cite prevention and management of natural and man-made risks (36% vs. 26%) and
ecology and food (28% vs. 20%); conversely, they are less likely to cite climate change
understanding (23% vs. 36%) and also energy management i.e. oil, gas, electricity (21% vs. 26%).

Socio-demographic analysis shows the influence of age and education; and slight influence of gender.
Health improvement is most likely to be mentioned by women (40%), the oldest
respondents aged 55+ (41%) and lesser educated respondents - who had left school at
the age of 15 or younger (47%). By contrast, health improvement is cited least often by
men (31%), the better educated respondents - till the age of 20 or beyond (31%) and
self-employed interviewees (31%).
Climate change understanding is mentioned most often by employees (38%); least often
by respondents who had left school at the age of 15 or younger (25%).
Prevention and management of natural and man-made risks is most likely to be
mentioned by better-educated respondents until the age of 20 or beyond (33%);
conversely it is mentioned least often by the oldest respondents aged 55+ (24%) and respondents who had left school at the age of 15 or younger (19%).
Energy management (oil, gas, electricity) is cited more often by men (28%) and
respondents from the younger age groups 15-24 and 25-39 (30% and 29%
respectively). By contrast, it is cited least often by women (22%), the oldest respondents
aged 55+ (22%) and interviewees who had left school at the age of 15 or younger
(21%).
Ecology and food production is least likely to be mentioned by the youngest respondents
aged 15-24 (15% compared to the average of 22%).
Education is most likely to be cited by the youngest respondents aged 15-24 (25%) and
the lesser education respondents who had left school at the age of 15 or younger (24%).
By contrast, it is mentioned least often by interviewees aged 40-54 (17%).
Transport and mobility is most likely to be cited by men (18%) and the youngest
respondents aged 15-24 (18%); conversely, it is cited least often by women (9%) and respondents who had left school at the age of 15 or younger (8%).
Navigation systems use analysis shows some differences between users and non-
users. Users of navigation systems are more likely than non-users to cite climate change
understanding (37% vs. 30%) and transport and mobility (17% vs. 10%); users are
however less likely than non-users to mention health improvement (32% vs. 39%).
Galileo awareness analysis reveals that the differences between interviewees who
heard of Galileo and those who did not, follow a similar pattern as with navigation system
users. Respondents who are aware of the Galileo programme are more likely than ‘non-
aware’ interviewees to mention climate change understanding (36% vs. 29%) and
transport and mobility (16% vs. 11%); They are however noticeably less likely than the ‘non-aware’ to mention health improvement (32% vs. 41%).

One of the priorities of the GMES programme is climate change understanding.
Nevertheless, respondents who are aware of this programme are slightly less likely to
cite climate change understanding as a priority (34%) compared to those who are not aware of it (31%).

3.2 Role of the EU in space activities development
- Three-quarters of Europeans think the EU should play a role in space
monitoring systems; over six in ten Europeans want the EU to develop space
exploration programme with humans or robots -
The interviewees were informed that the USA, China and Russia are developing their own
space activities. Then interviewees were asked what they think should be done when it
comes to space activities in the EU. They were asked to say for each of three specific
themes by whom they think it should be developed: each EU country who wishes so; the
EU alone for all Member States; the EU together with the Member States; neither the EU nor the Member States should develop it at all.
The three themes investigated are12:
A space monitoring system to manage disasters and crisis as well as mitigate the
effects of climate change
A space monitoring system to detect the satellites and space debris and prevent
their collision
A space exploration programme with humans or robots
Around three-quarters of Europeans think the EU should play a role in the two space
monitoring systems (77%, 74% respectively) and six in ten (63%), say the same for the
space exploration programme. Development by the EU should however be done together
with the Member States according to the majority of Europeans (63%, 59% and 51% for
the three themes respectively). Over one in ten Europeans think each EU country who
wishes so should develop it (12%, 11% and 12% respectively).

3.2.1 Space monitoring system for disasters, crisis and
climate change
Over three-quarters of Europeans (77%) think a space monitoring system to manage
disasters and crisis as well as mitigate the effects of climate change should be developed
by the EU: 14% say by the EU alone for all Member States, but a majority of 63% think it should be by the EU together with the Member States.
Almost one in eight Europeans (12%) thinks it should be developed by each EU country
who wishes so. Just over one in twenty Europeans (6%) believes neither the EU nor the
Member States should develop it at all. A further 5% of respondents are unable to form an opinion on this matter.
Country-by-country analysis shows there is an absolute majority of respondents within
every single Member State – except Poland - who are in favour of development of this
space monitoring system for disasters, crises, and climate change by the EU together
with the Member States. Highest percentages of interviewees with this view are in Latvia
(76%), Finland (75%), Germany (74%) and Estonia (73%); conversely, lowest percentages are in Poland (43%), Slovenia (50%) and Slovakia (52%).
Development of this space monitoring system by the EU alone for all EU Member States
is preferred most likely in Slovakia and Poland (each 23%); and least likely in Latvia
(5%), Finland (6%) and Estonia (8%).
Each EU country that wishes so should develop it is cited most often in Poland (28%) and
Romania (25%), at some distance followed by Slovakia 17%); conversely this is
mentioned least in Ireland (5%), Estonia, Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands (each 7%).
Neither the EU nor the Member States should develop it at all is an opinion most likely to
be found in the UK (12%) and the Netherlands (11%); by contrast, this is least the case in Estonia (2%) and Bulgaria (3%).

Respondents in the NMS12 countries are more likely than those in the EU15 countries to
say that each EU country that wishes so should develop it (21% vs. 10%); conversely,
they are less likely to say the EU should develop it together with the Member States (54% vs. 66%).
Socio-demographic breakdown reveals only limited influence of gender, age, education
and occupation. Slightly more men than women (66% vs. 61%) think a space
monitoring system for disasters, crises, and climate change should be developed by the
EU together with the Member States. The youngest respondents aged 15-24 are more
likely than the older respondents (17% compared to the average of 12%) to say that
each EU country that wishes so should develop it; this is also true of manual workers (19% compared to the average of 12%).
FLASH EUROBAROMETER 355 ‘Space activities’
37
Manual workers are less likely than employees (56% vs. 67%) to think development should be by the EU together with the Member States.
Navigation systems use analysis shows that users of navigation systems are
somewhat more likely than non-users to say this monitoring system should be developed
by the EU together with the Member States (67% vs. 60%).
Galileo awareness analysis reveals that interviewees who are aware of the Galileo
programme are more likely than those who are ‘unaware’ interviewees to to say this
monitoring system should be developed by the EU together with the Member States
(67% vs. 59%).
GMES awareness analysis did not show significant differences.

3.2.2 Space monitoring system to detect satellites and
space debris preventing their collision
We saw that almost three-quarters of Europeans (74%) think a space monitoring system
to detect the satellites and space debris and prevent their collision should be developed
by the EU: 15 % say by the EU alone, but a majority, 59%, think it should be by the EU together with the Member States.
Just over one in ten Europeans (11%) think each EU country who wishes so should
develop this space monitoring system. Almost one in ten Europeans (9%) believes
neither the EU nor the Member States should develop this space monitoring system at
all. A further 6% say they don’t know.
Country-by-country analysis shows various differences regarding the role of the EU in
development of a space monitoring system to detect the satellites and space debris and prevent their collision.
Development should be by the EU together with the Member States, is the prevailing
majority opinion within every single Member State – with the exception of Poland,
Slovakia and Slovenia. Largest proportions of respondents having this opinion are in
Latvia (73%), Germany (72%) Finland (71%), and Estonia (69%); conversely, smallest proportions are in Poland (40%), Slovakia (49%) and Slovenia (49%).
Interviewees are most likely to believe development of this space monitoring system
should be by the EU alone for all EU Member States in Poland (25%) and Slovakia
(23%); and least likely so in Finland (7%), Latvia (8%), and Estonia (9%).
Each EU country that wishes so should develop it is an opinion observed most often in
Poland (26%) and Romania (21%), at some distance followed by Slovakia 16%); conversely this is mentioned least in Germany (4%), Estonia and Ireland (each 5%).
Neither the EU nor the Member States should develop it at all is an opinion most likely to
be found in the UK (15%) and the Netherlands (14%); by contrast, this is least the case in Bulgaria (3%), Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia (each 4%).
Again, interviewees in the NMS12 countries are more likely than the interviewees in the
EU15 countries to say that each EU country that wishes so should develop it (19% vs.
8%); conversely, they are less likely to say the EU should develop it together with the
Member States (52% vs. 62%).

Socio-demographic analysis shows only minor influence of age, education and
occupation. The younger the respondents, the more likely they are to say that each EU
country that wishes so should develop it: those aged 15-24 (15%) compared to those
aged 55+ (8%). Respondents who had left school at the age of 15 or younger are less
likely to think development should be by the EU together with the Member States than
their better educated counterparts (51% compared to the average of 59%). By contrast,
employees are more likely to think so (63% compared to the average of 59%).
Navigation systems use analysis shows that users of navigation systems are
somewhat more likely than non-users to say this monitoring system should be developed
by the EU together with the Member States (64% vs. 56%).

Galileo awareness analysis reveals that Galileo-aware interviewees are more likely
than ‘unaware’ interviewees to say this monitoring system should be developed by the EU together with the Member States (63% vs. 55%).
GMES awareness analysis show a slight difference, as GMES-aware respondents are
more likely than those who are ‘unaware’ to say this monitoring system should be
developed by the EU together with the Member States (63% vs. 58%).

3.2.3 Space exploration programme with humans or robots
Over six in ten Europeans (63%) say a space exploration programme with humans or
robots should be developed by the EU: 12 % say by the EU alone, but 51%think it should be developed by the EU together with the Member States.
One in eight Europeans (12%) has the opinion that each EU country who wishes so
should develop this space monitoring system. Almost one in five Europeans (18%)
believes neither the EU nor the Member States should develop space exploration
programme with humans or robots at all. A further 7% of the interviewees are unable to
form an opinion.
Country-by-country analysis reveals differences concerning the role of the EU in space
exploration programme with humans or robots.
Also with this theme, the most widespread opinion is that development should be by the
EU together with the Member States; a majority of interviewees think so within 19 of the
27 Member States. Highest percentages of respondents with this view are observed in
Latvia (65%), Lithuania (64%) and Hungary (63%); on the other end of the spectrum,
Poland stands out with the lowest percentage (35%), followed at a distance by the UK (43%).
The opinion that development of this space exploration programme should be by the EU
alone for all EU Member States is found most often in Poland (22%) and Slovakia (19%);
conversely, least so in Finland (5%), Sweden, Germany and Latvia (each 7%).
Interviewees in Poland (26%) and Slovakia (20%) are the most likely to believe that
each EU country that wishes so should develop it; by contrast, this is least likely of respondents in Portugal (6%), Estonia, Malta and Luxembourg (each 7%).
Neither the EU nor the Member States should develop it at all is a view most often found
in the UK (26%), Sweden and Spain (each 23%); conversely, it is observed least often in Bulgaria (6%), and Lithuania (7%).
Again, as with the two space programmes (Galileo and GMES) in previous sections,
interviewees in the NMS12 countries are more likely than the interviewees in the EU15
countries to say that a space exploration programme with humans or robots should be
developed by each EU country that wishes so (19% vs. 10%); conversely, they are less
likely to say the EU should develop it together with the Member States (47% vs. 52%).
Nevertheless, respondents in the NMS12 are also somewhat more inclined than those in
the EU15 to think the EU alone should develop it for all EU Member States (16% vs.
11%); and, noticeably, they are less inclined to say that neither the EU nor the Member
States should develop it at all (12% vs. 20%).

Socio-demographic breakdown reveals some influence of gender, age and education
regarding the role of the EU in developing a space exploration programme with humans
or robots. More men than women (56% vs. 47%) think development should be by the EU
together with the Member States. The younger the respondents, the more likely they are

3.3 Level of EU involvement in space exploration
In the previous section we saw that 18% of the respondents think that a space
exploration programme with humans or robots should not be developed at all by the EU
or by the Member States. These respondents were not presented with the question dealt
with in this section: whether the EU should do more in the field of Space Exploration.
Of all other respondents, almost three-quarters (73%) believe the EU should do more in
the field of Space Exploration13: 32% say yes, definitely and 41% say yes, probably.
However, over one-fifth of them say this should not be the case: 15% say probably not
and 7% say definitely not. A further 5% are unable to form an opinion.
Base: total sample with exclusion of respondents who think neither the EU nor the Member States should
develop a space exploration programme with humans and robots at all; n= 20928
In 2009 a similar question was asked on Space activities in a survey14. 64% of
respondents believed that the EU should do more in the field of space exploration (26% Yes definitely, 38% Yes, perhaps, 28% No, 2% Does not matter/not interested).

Between the 9th and the 12th of July 2012, TNS Political & Social, a consortium created between TNS political &
social, TNS UK and TNS opinion, carried out the survey FLASH EUROBAROMETER 355 about “Space activities”.
This survey has been requested by the EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Directorate-general for DG ENTREPRISE AND
INDUSTRY. It is a general public survey co-ordinated by the Directorate-General for Communication (“Research
and Speechwriting” Unit). The FLASH EUROBAROMETER 355 covers the population of the respective nationalities of
the European Union Member States, resident in each of the 27 Member States and aged 15 years and over. All
interviews were carried using the TNS e-Call center (our centralized CATI system). In every country respondents
were called both on fixed lines and mobile phones. The basic sample design applied in all states is multi-stage
random (probability). In each household, the respondent was drawn at random following the "last birthday rule".
TNS has developed its own RDD sample generation capabilities based on using contact telephone numbers from
responders to random probability or random location face to face surveys, such as Eurobarometer, as seed
numbers. The approach works because the seed number identifies a working block of telephone numbers and
reduces the volume of numbers generated that will be ineffective. The seed numbers are stratified by NUTS2 region
and urbanisation to approximate a geographically representative sample. From each seed number the required
sample of numbers are generated by randomly replacing the last two digits. The sample is then screened against
business databases in order to exclude as many of these numbers as possible before going into field. This approach
is consistent across all countries.
For each country a comparison between the sample and the universe was carried out. The Universe description
was derived from Eurostat population data or from national statistics offices. For all countries surveyed, a national
weighting procedure, using marginal and intercellular weighting, was carried out based on this Universe
description. In all countries, gender, age, region and size of locality were introduced in the iteration procedure. For
international weighting (i.e. EU averages), TNS Political & Social applies the official population figures as provided
by EUROSTAT or national statistic offices. The total population figures for input in this post-weighting procedure
are listed above.
