Australian Space Agency

aka ASA, Australian Space Agency

The Australian Space Agency (ASA) was established in May 2018 in Adelaide, South Australia, to oversee and support the Australian civil space sector. With an initial budget of A$41M over 4 years, ASA co-funds Australian participation in NASA's Moon to Mars program (including a lunar rover contribution), supports domestic launch industry growth, and coordinates Australia's growing downstream Earth observation and space services sector.
