The European Space Expo will be deployed in Larnaca, from 12th to 18th November 2012, offering visitors the chance to dive into the universe of the European satellite navigation systems, Galileo and EGNOS, and GMES the European Earth Observation programme.

The Expo allows visitors to discover how Space can improve our daily lives and help us face the environmental and social challenges that Europe and its citizens are confronted with.

Twelve touchscreens and the Omniglobe take visitors on a journey exploring the services provided by Galileo/EGNOS and GMES and their applications in domains such as the conservation of natural resources, civil security, air and road transport, or even territorial planning. Furthermore, a programme of daily conferences aimed at the general public will be available to visitors.

The European Commission has arranged a series of children’s activities for the Space Expo, allowing youngsters to learn how Space affects their lives in a direct way. In particular, children will have the opportunity to attend talks on Space-related subjects, which have been tailor-made for the younger audience.

The exhibition is open daily from 10.00 to 14.00 and 16.00 to 18.00 on weekdays, 10.00-20.00 on Saturday and Sunday. Admission to the exhibition is free.
