Welcome to the Canadian page of the Space Generation Advisory Council!
From Canadarm to the fine guidance sensors of JWST, and having a Canadian astronaut as part of the Artemis II mission, our nation has left its mark on the global space stage. The Canadian space sector offers a variety of opportunities for students and professionals across diverse fields. Moreover, the Cooperation Agreement between Canada and the European Space Agency (ESA) opens doors for Canadians to actively participate in ESA activities. Our mission is to empower our members to seize these opportunities, contributing to Canada’s position in the space community
