Czech press: Prague becomes the space capital of the European Union

39

The Czech media write that “Prague is becoming the space capital of the European Union”. In the material of the Czech journalist Luboš Palata, it is reported that this is due to the decision of the EU authorities to create a head center for the management of EU space programs in the capital of the Czech Republic.

The annual budget of the created control center "European analogue of NASA" (this term is used by Czech reporters) will be equal to 10 billion euros. This center will employ several hundred employees.

Lubos Chamber:

The European Union wants to remain at the forefront of global space exploration. Therefore, a new control center for all EU space programs will be established in Prague. For the Czech capital, this means an inflow of billions of crowns to host the new agency and create jobs for hundreds of leading experts and European officials.

Earlier it was reported that the EU space agency plans to create at least 2025 thousand additional jobs by 250. According to the executive director of the renewed agency, Rodrigo da Costa, the EU Space Program Agency needs a new headquarters and suitable infrastructure:

The existing infrastructure on the banks of the Vltava is insufficient.

Czech MEP Evgen Toshenovski said that the Prague control center will take over the implementation of all space programs of the European Union:

The EU Space Program Control Center will become one of the largest facilities in the European Union.

In turn, Brussels notes that the new center will be fully controlled by specialists from the EU.

Deputy Toshenovsky:
For Czech companies, the location of such a center in Prague is a good news... But only it will be difficult for them in the struggle for contracts.

        The English speakers created the Empire.
        The EU is for the electorate.

        Today Prague is the center of the universe, tomorrow Vilnius will be appointed, after tomorrow Bordeaux.

        control center "European analogue of NASA"


        Not an analogue, but a subdivision.

        The guys, whose native language is English, rule the old world from the new.

        How long?

        If the EU becomes the land of homosexuals, then for a long time.
        Bugs are not just rear-wheel drive.
        These are creatures for whom the traditions of this or that people are not available.


        And space is a secondary matter here. wink

          If every city in the EU is made the capital of something, it will force tourists to make long trips.
          So from the point of view of tourism development, we did fine.
          But my personal opinion - excessive enthusiasm for the development of tourism has a detrimental effect on the country as a whole. The distinction between peoples is being erased, rubbish is everywhere, consumer attitude to resources.
          But that can also be a goal, the consumer electorate is so predictable.

      At first it was the capital of world Jewry, its occult center.
      Now it will become the space capital of the European Union, a space center to the envy of even the great NASA lol

      PS: When I first read the title of the article, I was slightly mistaken: instead of "space" I saw "cosmetic". laughing
      And then, it turns out, such great plans!

    "........ means the inflow of billions of crowns for the placement of the new agency and the creation of jobs for hundreds of leading experts and European officials..... "

    Brussel is already not enough for officials ..... everything has already been "mastered" .... it must have become hungry for the "experts" too ..... the cosmodrome in Verbitz will be built, how to drink ...

    From the style of the statement, the Ukrainian spirit breathed where all the best, the first, the strongest ... It remains to rename Prague to New Brussels, And Brussels to Old Prague.
    this means an inflow of billions of crowns to host a new agency and create jobs for hundreds leading experts and European officials.
    Without a crowd of new officials, no matter how, but the main thing is there is an opportunity to earn extra money.

    And soon Petrov and Bashirov will come to them, disguised as Moldovans ... No, they were already Moldovans ... Well, they will come up with something, for example, the cat Matroskin and the postman Pechkin. The main thing is they will steal all ten lard and five more from a neighboring bank, they will steal all the codes of NASA and the European Space Agency, and Russian hackers, using these codes, will launch European and American missiles in an unknown direction, and that's all ... Well, then it's up to the sanctions.

    Has the outlet already been updated in Dukovany? laughing Or did the neighbors bite? Europe - to disperse all this rag-tag in the European Parliament and other regimes in European countries that are busy with anything but the interests of their peoples. The more they will smack all this crap from the stands, the higher the likelihood of another taking of the Bastille, and precisely for the purpose of democracy.  wassat
