The British National Space Centre (BNSC) was a British government body that coordinated civil space activities for the UK. It was replaced on 1 April 2010 by the UK Space Agency. StructureBNSC operated as a voluntary partnership of ten British government departments and agencies and research councils. The civil portion of the British space programme focused on space science, Earth observation, satellite telecommunications, and global navigation (for example GPS and Galileo). The latest version of the UK civil space strategy which defined the goals of BNSC was published in February 2008. Notably the BNSC had a policy against human spaceflight, and did not contribute to the International Space Station. From Wikipedia under the
