Space is a domain of growing importance. Thus, I wanted to visit the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). As early as 1986, Sweden began joint cooperation on space with ISRO. India has made impressive achievements in space, specializing in doing so with cost-effective solutions. Being cost-effective means being smart!
Recently India made its first Moon landing on the southern pole. We wish to deepen our relationship in the space domain even further.
Also, did you know that Sweden is the only EU country with a space port for launching satellites from the European continent? We launch our satellites from Esrange in the north of Sweden, and other countries can too.
