ESA has set five goals to achieve by 2040. Goal 5 is to Inspire Europe.
ESA and its 23 Member States share an ambitious vision for Europe’s future, united by curiosity, driven by excellence and inspired by the endless sky above us.
Through education, cooperation and world-leading missions, ESA empowers every generation to look up, imagine more and help elevate Europe’s future.
At the ESA Council at Ministerial Level held on 26 and 27 November 2025, Europe will take the next step in this shared journey as part of Strategy 2040.
