The Copernicus space component shall provide spaceborne observations, serving primarily the services referred to in Article 5(1).

The increasing risk of collision with other satellites and space debris is a serious threat to the Copernicus space component.

The Copernicus space component shall consist of dedicated missions and contributing mission data, and include the following activities:

The provision of operational services depends on the good functioning, continued availability and safety of the Copernicus space component.

The increasing risk of collision with other satellites and space debris is the most serious threat to the Copernicus space component.

With the expansion of the Copernicus Space Component every year, new prize categories enable solutions that tackle global challenges.
