Support Studies

Support Studies support work not necessarily directly linked to a potential flight. Support studies propose ideas that will benefit the Canadian Space Science Exploration Program in ways such as setting up infrastructure, developing expertise in science or technology with the aim of developing competitiveness on the international scene, proof of concept on the ground, research studies with strong public awareness components, or improving current ground-based facilities and instruments that support existing or planned Space Science Exploration projects. An annual review determines the continuation of the study. These reviews are based on performance and whether the deliverables planned for the following year are attainable and relevant.
