“Space for all” might not be as far away as it sounds
The international space community came together under the motto of ‘Space for All’, at the 73rd International Astronautical Congress held in Paris in September 2022.
Driven by the vision of “space for all,” Rakia, a public benefit company, is dedicated to advancing and developing the space sector in Israel through local and international partnerships, with a focus on human spaceflight.
Born from the April 2022 voyage of Israeli astronaut Eytan Stibbe to the International Space Station as an Ax-1 mission crew member, the Rakia mission demonstrated the vast potential of activity and research in space. Rakia is driven by a conviction that this field can be made accessible to a wide range of populations, inspiring people, encouraging curiosity and innovation, and promoting peace, social responsibility and planetary sustainability.
