This week, the @LuxSpaceAgency Astronaut for a Day (#AFAD) finalists took a zero-gravity flight! 🧑🚀 16 parabolas, and experiencing weightlessness – what an adventure! Upon return to Luxembourg’s Findel Airport, SES and our very own Xavier Bertran had the privilege to join the ceremony of welcoming the brave teenagers from Luxembourg, Austria and Estonia.
A visionary approach to space and innovation is in Luxembourg’s DNA and SES is happy to support this #LSA initiative that helps nurturing talents in Europe, together with @ClearSpaceToday and @redwire.
The event took place in the presence of the Prime Minister @LucFrieden, Marc Serres, CEO of the Luxembourg Space Agency, Andreas Geisler, Head of Aeronautics and Space Agency at the FFG Austrian Research Promotion Agency, and Dr. Karin Proidl, Ambassador of Austria in Luxembourg. Thank you for your continuous support of space initiatives and young talents!
A special thank you to SES’s Space Ambassador Lara Kalanke who proudly wore the exclusive SES flight patch during the flight!
