I am honoured to attend the first General Assembly of the International Deep Space Exploration Association (IDSEA) and to have been accepted onto the first council. I believe collaboration is key to our future in space exploration, and to deriving real benefit from space on Earth
‘It starts with a dream, fuelled by science, driven by a passion and strengthened by partnerships’ #africa2moon @adrianamarais @carlassharpe youtu.be/CHNLpkPnPV8
May 25th commemorates the founding of the now African Union (AU) in 1963. It marks unity, pride, and reflection on Africa’s journey. Space science and technology have become powerful symbols of Africa’s progress and potential. Space matters to what Africa Day stands for

Khutso Ngoasheng | Director of Foundation for Space Development Africa. 🌌 It is the first time in humanity that we realistically face the prospect of life beyond the atmosphere.
Foundation for Space Development Africa retweeted
"Exploring the mysteries of the cosmos starts with a clear view—but did you know there’s a hidden spectrum we’ve barely tapped into? 🌌✨ The sub-10 MHz frequency band, blocked by Earth’s atmosphere, holds secrets of the early Universe and beyond. 🚀
Foundation for Space Development Africa retweeted
We’ve applied to be a payload on the Chang’e-8 mission, part of China’s visionary Lunar Exploration Program. The Chang’e Program has revolutionized lunar exploration, with landmark missions like Chang’e-4 achieving the first-ever landing on the Moon’s far side.
Announcement: Africa’s Moon mission | A Lunar Radio Telescope
We are working towards Africa's 1st mission to the Moon, the #Africa2Moon Project, also the world's 1st radio telescope on the the Moon to perform new science in the 1-10MHz range from the Lunar farside. Watch this space🌛🚀
