Overview
• Space in the Framework Programme
• FP7 Space Theme
 GMES
 Space Foundations
 Cross-cutting R&D issues
• Outcome Call 3, France’s participation in Call 3
• Preliminary information on Space Call 4

The Space theme in FP7
Space in the EU Research Framework
Programmes
Space a new activity, first introduced by the
6th Framework Programme under the
Aeronautics & Space theme - FP6 (2002-2006):
 About € 230 million over five years.
 Earth observation (GMES), Satcom, Satnav
 Focused on applications and services
With own Theme in FP7 (2007 – 2013)
 About € 1.4 billion over 7 years
 GMES + Strengthening Space Foundations
 Services, but also technology development
The FP7 Space Programme
Main topics
I. GMES (85% of budget):
• Land, Marine, Atmosphere, & Emergency,
Security, Climate Change
• Major investment in the space component and
operational services
II. Strengthening Space Foundations (15% of
budget):
• Space Technologies, Exploration, Space
Transportation, Space Science

Upstream research, downstream research
(e.g., data exploitation)

Cross-cutting issues
Strengthening Space Foundations
• Support to research in space science and exploration
 Technology development enabling exploration (access to planets,
moving on planetary surfaces, sample return)
 Exploitation of data from European missions
• New concepts in space transportation, space
technologies
• Critical technologies for European Non-Dependence
• Research into reducing the vulnerability of spacebased systems
 Space weather – forecast, resilience
 Debris – tracking, mitigation
To provide opportunities for those
actors/activities which are currently not catered
for yet at ESA or national level, thereby adding
value to these

SME participation
75%
• Priority for FP7, especially DG ENTR
• Whilst (so far) not mandatory in our call
topics, regarded always as a plus during
evaluations
Last call statistics:
in ranked (successfull proposals) list
• 22% of participation
• receiving 18% of EU budget
Opportunities for third countries to
participate in FP7






Space is a global endeavour
Participation in ALL above areas is encouraged to
researchers and research organisations from all third
countries
The active participation of third country partners, e.g.
from Russia represents an added value
Financing is possible, if the contribution is essential for
reaching the objective of the project
Strong focus on cooperation with Russia, South Africa,
Latin America (see ICPC list)
also US, Japan as other important space faring nations

• GMES security: governance options
• GMES service continuity
• Long-term R&D for future GMES capacities
Topic: SPA.2011.1.1-01
GMES Security: exploring operational
governance options
• Need identification of long-term options for governance
(sensitivity issues, data procurement, interfacing with CFSP
users)
• Already acknowledgement that EUSC has specific security
expertise to contribute
• However, need to support the dialogue between GMES and
EUSC stakeholders (esp. national authorities, EU
institutions) through a Support Action providing overview of
positions and options
• Note - involvement of stakeholders is key!
• CSA Project: EU contribution of EUR 1 million €
upper eligibility limit
R&D Topics under GMES
• Focus on continuity of GMES core service (fasttrack services from Call 1 will finish end 2011).
• Land + emergency will be addressed outside FP
under GMES Regulation
• FP7 Space Call 4 will still support Marine +
Atmosphere GMES Services in two large scale
projects
• Aim is to move away from “validation of preoperational services” and move towards “setting
up of prototype operations”
Topics: SPA.2011.1.05-01 - SPA.2011.1.05-02
Prototype operations – Marine & Atmosphere
• Aim: Full operationality by 2014
• Use of combined CP-CSA funding instrument to
be able to address actual operations (CSA) and
limited R&D coupled to those operations (CP)
• Supportive R&D with fast response time to meet
the short term needs of the operational chain
• Operational results to serve the GMES user
community and researchers (“support activity”
must support research!)
• CP-CSA Projects: EC contribution of EUR 28M€
(Marine) and 19M€ (Atm) upper eligibility limit
Topic: SPA.2011.1.05-03
R&D in support of GMES capabilities
• Innovative research in Marine or Atmosphere
domains
• Long-term GMES aims:
- Improve quality of op. services
- Integrate new scientific methodologies
- Develop new applications
- Improve user uptake
• Small-scale projects (CPs)
• Suited to SME participation
• Collaborative Projects EC contribution of EUR 2

• Space critical technologies
• Prevention of impacts of NEOs
Topic SPA.2011.2.1-01 –
Exploitation of space science and
exploration data
• data exploitation related to space exploration
• the focus of knowledge generated should be on
robotic exploration and pre-requisites to human
exploration, such as biomedical studies
• use widest range of data sources
• exploit results from in-space experiments (e.g. ISS) in
combination with other data
• open to international cooperation leading to effective
scientific exploitation of existing data
• Collaborative Projects EC contribution of EUR 2
million upper eligibility limit
Topic SPA.2011.2.1-02 –
Research and Development for Space
Exploration
• technologies relevant to space exploration, focus on
robotic exploration
• research on innovative instrumentation, mobility on
planetary surfaces, in-space and from-surface
propulsion, in-space power generation, innovative
techniques for survivability in space
• suitable micro-propulsion systems
• advanced concepts for autonomous distributed and
co-operating systems
• open to international cooperation
• Collaborative Projects EC contribution of EUR 2
million upper eligibility limit
Topic SPA.2011.2.2-01 –
Space transportation technologies
• To increase the innovation capacity of future
developments by proposing and evaluating new
concepts and disruptive technologies
 Launcher concepts
 Propellants
 Materials and simulation
 Power systems
 Weight reduction
• Collaborative Projects EC contribution of EUR 2
million upper eligibility limit
Topic SPA.2011.2.2-02 –
Space “critical” technologies
• … Europe needs non-dependent access to
critical space technologies…
• … emphasis on medium term impact…
• … technologies surveyed by Joint EC-EDAESA Task Force…
• … technologies not covered by table are out
of scope of call…
• Collaborative Projects EC contribution of EUR
2 million upper eligibility limit
“Critical Technologies” – meaning :
• “Independence” would imply that all needed
space technologies are developed in Europe.
• “Non-dependence” refers to the possibility for
Europe to have free, unrestricted access to
any required space technology.
• The objective of this action is to
contribute to ensure European Nondependence.
Further explanations – see document
on Cordis Call web page:
Topic SPA.2011.2.3-01 –
Prevention of impacts from Near Earth
Objects (NEOs) on our Planet
• … to assess the risk of potential threats of
NEOs as asteroids and comets …
• … NEOs material properties, their stability
and orbit/position relative to Earth can be
studied…
• … proposals should explore the feasibility of
methodologies and capabilities necessary to
prevent collision on Earth…
