All tender information MUST be submitted through the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal. Brief Description of Requirement Later this year, the first satellite launch from UK soil will take place from Spaceport Cornwall in Newquay - making the UK the first country in Europe to launch into orbit. This will be followed by vertical launches from Sutherland in the Highlands and SaxaVord in the Shetlands next year. The UK Space Agency will use launch from the UK soil as an opportunity to inspire and engage young people, particularly those from under-represented groups about a) the role of space in improving life in earth and b) the job opportunities within the UK space sector through a nationwide awareness and engagement programme. Therefore as the UK's first space launch will be such a historic moment for the country, we want to use this opportunity to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers and space entrepreneurs to ensure the future space talent pipeline. The UK Space Agency is already delivering a number of existing education activities to support our objective to: - Inspire and engage young people, particularly those from underrepresented groups, in order to encourage uptake of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math's) subjects with a view to building and sustaining the talent pipeline. We are looking to create an education outreach activity that will fit alongside our existing and ongoing Launch Year education activities, which include: - LogoLiftOff! competition which received over 10k entries from primary aged children; - Nanosat Design & Build competition for young people aged 16+ and; - CanSat competition for 14-22 year olds, which this year had 55 schools participate, more than double that of previous years.
