When measured up to other modern economic sectors like for instance internet services or aviation, space sector has a number of very unique features, which make such comparisons useless or sometimes naïve. One of such unique marks is its strong and constant linkage to outspoken and hidden political interests. Space sector has its own dynamics. Even if the future of the European space industry looks quite promising, there shall be no doubt, that the speed of its development will for many years stay in function of a broad political will to support it. Space sector’s constant relation to political interests and its strong dependence on public budget sustaining, might in fact very radically change its economics, so that the current prognosis lose its credibility and sense.
