"Qatar deserves the best from it's citizens"

Qatar Aeronautics and Space Agency (QASA) is a non-profit organization that is designed as a core performance agency to support Qatar's overall aeronautical and aerospace development. QASA will act as a gateway for Qatar to outer space. QASA will motivate Qataris to support the sustainable development of the state of Qatar by calling for united national efforts to advance space technology and its uses. Besides, QASA will attract young, intelligent Qataris to become space scientists and technology pioneers and pass their invitations and studies to outer space. Our organization is focused on promoting search exploration in Qatar, inspiring new generations of Qataris to take part in space missions, and enhance the development of astronomy. We believe that space activities and astronomical research will not only advance Qatar's overall aeronautical and aerospace development but also serve as powerful tools for its economic, social, and environmental development. Hopefully, QASA’s core performance will become a further testament to a knowledge-based and sustainable economy of Qatar. 

From the beggining

We are putting the foundation of the agency with the aim of creating a dynamic network of space scientists who would promote Qatar’s space capabilities. From the very creation of QASA, we are strongly committed to providing in-depth education on space science and technology for our potential students and fostering the application of scientific knowledge about space to practice. We will educate our students on space science so that they will be able to succeed in their future space missions and science operations. High-quality educational/training activities and advanced equipment are the foundational elements of QASA’s successful start. 
​

Where we want to be

Independence in technology and research means for us a capacity to initiate space research programs and use technological applications to reach our goals. We want to conduct our own assessments of space in order to inform our decisions taken in structuring our aeronautics programs. 
Sending young Qataris to space is one of our main goals since, in such a way, we will be able to improve the technical competence and knowledge base of a young generation and develop Qatar’s presence in space. QASA is an excellent choice for students who want to explore space and participate in different scientific and technical operations to leverage technological advances in the fields of aeronautics and aerospace. 
We believe that QASA will not only occupy an important place in the history of Qatar’s aeronautical and aerospace development but also make its own history since our plans and aspirations are powerful enough to push Qatar toward a brighter future. ​

Industries that we promote!

QASA recommends Qatar Foundation, Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP), Al Thuraya Planetarium, European Space Agency (ESA), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Qatar Civil Aviation Authority (QCAA) because of their support to space education and science. NASA is a US-based aeronautics and space federal agency that supports educational activities and efforts of space professionals and novice scientists to explore Earth and space and offers science opportunities, pathways programs, and internships for students. We strongly support QCAA, which is one of Qatar’s agencies that enable the country to take a leading role in global civil aviation. QCAA supports students’ aviation career by offering various education and training programs for young Qataris and accelerating the development of computer and data sciences by conducting research and developing technological applications. We recommend these industries to students who want to improve their competence and expand the competitiveness of Qatar’s aerospace and aeronautics industries.
