The Canadian Space Agency (CSA), established in 1989, is the national space agency of Canada responsible for promoting the peaceful use and development of space. A key focus is to advance space knowledge through science and ensure space science and technology provide social and economic benefits for Canadians. The CSA is known for its contributions to space exploration, including the Canadarm robotic arm series and participation in missions like the Artemis 2 moon mission, partnering with organizations like NASA and ESA on projects involving satellites, rovers, and space telescopes.
