The Canadian Space Agency has selected Western University to help them guide the Junior Astronauts initiative with the program goal of engaging 80,000 youth across Canada during the current school year.

This week we have our final special recording from the recent Canadian Aeronautics and Space Institute ASTRO 2019 conference in Laval, Quebec.

On April 12 Western University held its annual Space Day. One of the more interesting events was a panel discussion on Space Resources: The Next Frontier in Exploration.

The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) awarded another four contracts valued at $700,000 under the Flights and Fieldwork for the Advancement of Science and Technology (FAST) program, this time for research related to a possible future moon rover.

Western University is holding its annual Space Day on Friday, April 12 that includes industry, government and academic experts along with student presentations that point to future Canadian space development.

In space, David Saint-Jacques is very used to dealing with roommates in the cramped quarters of the International Space Station. Things are roomier than usual at the moment – there are three people up there instead of the usual six – but still, that was the image he evoked when talking about the importance of protecting species on Earth.

The Canadian Space Summit provided SpaceQ an opportunity to sit down with Ryan Anderson of SatCan for an update, to learn about a new E/PO initiative called Space Matters, and to get a quick first reaction to Amazon’s new Ground Station service.

Nearly six months after putting out a call for a Science Advisor to the president of the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), the agency has selected Dr. Sarah Gallagher of Western University.

This week we’re doing something a little different and unplanned. On Friday, April 6 Western University in London, Ontario held its 4th annual Space Day.
