SPACE ROCKS AT THE 2026 ESTEC OPEN DAY!

We're thrilled to be back at this year’s ESTEC Open Day. Held at the European Space Agency’s main technology, development and test centre in Noordwijk in the Netherlands this weekend, the site is open to all ticket holders free of charge.

Space Rocks will be welcoming a fascinating array of guests to not one but two Space Rocks stages this year. We'll be covering everything from ESA’s exciting new Plato mission, to planetary defence and the subject of who owns space. But it’s not just science! Continuing our tradition of bringing worlds together, Hilmar Pétursson from EVE Online will be joining us to discuss how his MMORPG has become the longest running space games of all time.
