Forbundet Unge Forskere
The Norwegian Association of Young Scientists is a youth
organisation based on voluntary work. The goal is to inspire
young people to become interested in the sciences and
research in general. This the organisation seeks to do
through local groups arranging activities locally, the
annual competition for young scientists and several larger
arrangements often called camps; Space Camp on Andøya,
Bio Med Camp in Bergen, Cyber Camp in Trondheim and a
weekend for human sciences in Oslo. |

NAROM
The Norwegian Centre for
Space Related Education is a relatively newly formed centre
located at Andøya in northern Norway. Educational activities
here are performed in close co-operation with Andøya Rocket
Range (ARR), which has several decades of experience in
launching sounding rockets for atmospheric study, and
which also has advanced facilities for ground based atmospheric
research using lidars and radars. Within a context of
advanced technology and beautiful natural surroundings,
theory and practice are united in the learning experience
in a way not possible elsewhere in the country. |

The Norwegian Space Centre
The Norwegian Space Centre is a foundation cooperating
closely with the Ministry of Trade and Industry. The
centre guides ESA contracts strategically. Public fundings
are utillized to support the development of Norwegian
industry and for development and demonstration of space
applications, and to optimize conditions for national
space research. Headquarters are located in Oslo. Andøya
Rocket Range offers services to scientists worldwide
wishing to study phenomena in the middle or higher polar
atmosphere. Kongsberg Satellite Services (KSAT), which
is 50% owned by the Norwegian Space Centre, has an international
reputation for near real-time delivery of information
from polar orbiting satellites. |

ESA
ESA, the European Space Agency, provides a vision of
Europe's future in space, and of the benefits for people
on the ground that satellites can supply. It also develops
the strategies needed to fulfil the vision, through collaborative
projects in space science and technology. The development
of powerful launchers and novel spacecraft is one method
by which ESA operates. Another is by creative interaction
with the national space agencies and aerospace industries
in ESA's 15 Member States. And in an era when the US-Soviet
space race of the Cold War has given way to worldwide
cooperation in space, ESA speaks and acts for Europe
on the global stage. |
