About Italy's Space Industry
Italy has a long spaceflight heritage dating back to the San Marco satellite program in the 1960s. Today, the Italian Space Agency (ASI) is a major ESA contributor, and companies like Thales Alenia Space (Turin) and Avio (Vega rocket) make Italy one of Europe's top space manufacturing nations. Italy also contributed key modules to the International Space Station.
