SpaceResources.lu is a Luxembourg government initiative launched in 2016 to promote the exploration and utilization of space resources. It aims to establish Luxembourg as a European hub for commercial space activities, particularly in the area of space resource utilization. The initiative focuses on creating a legal and regulatory framework, supporting research and development, and attracting companies involved in prospecting, extraction, processing, and manufacturing using space resources. The Luxembourg Space Agency (LSA) and the European Space Resources Innovation Centre (ESRIC) are key partners in this effort.
