ESERO-UK Space Ambassadors win award

The ESERO-UK Space Ambassadors have been awarded the 2018 Sir Arthur Clarke Award for Space Achievement – Education and Outreach Team.

They were rewarded for their inspirational and enthusiastic work with teachers and pupils in hundreds of schools per year across the UK, using space as a context in STEM subjects to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers.

The Sir Arthur Clarke Awards took place on 1 November at the Royal Aeronautical Society to recognise and reward those individuals and teams that have made notable or outstanding achievements in, or contributions to, all space activities in the past year, 2017/18. Better known as ‘The Arthurs’, they have been presented annually since 2005.

The British Interplanetary Society, selected once again as the organiser of the awards by the Foundation, invited nominations from the general public and a nominations panel of senior representatives from all areas of the space sector.
