World Space Week is an international celebration of science and technology,

and their contribution to the betterment of the human condition.

The United Nations General Assembly declared in 1999 that World Space Week will be held each year from October 4-10.

These dates commemorate two events:

October 4, 1957: Launch of the first human-made Earth satellite, Sputnik 1, thus opening the way for space exploration

October 10, 1967: The signing of the Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Peaceful Uses of Outer Space,

including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies.

Each year, the World Space Week Association (WSWA) selects a theme for the upcoming World Space Week (WSW)

to provide a focus of the activities

and events that take a place throughout the world, during 4-10 October.

The World Space Week 2024 theme is “Space and Climate Change.”

The National Coordinator for Cyprus for the United Nations World Space Week,

Mr. George Troullias and his team,

will inform people about this year's World Space Week’s Theme and how to celebrate it.
