State Space Agency of Ukraine is Ukraine's national civil space agency, formed on 1992-02-29 from space infrastructure that remained in Ukraine after the dissolution of the Soviet Union.[1][2] Its mandate covers state space policy, space research, peaceful uses of space, national-security applications, and international cooperation.[2][3] The agency operated under the National Space Agency of Ukraine name before it was renamed State Space Agency of Ukraine on 2010-12-09.[1] Its Earth-observation relevance is the Sich mission line, including Sich-1, Sich-1M, Sich-2, and Sich-2-30, with Sich-2-30 launched on SpaceX Transporter-3 after being renamed for Ukraine's 30th independence anniversary.[1][2] Current programme continuity after the 2022 wartime period remains a diligence item, so active data availability should be evaluated at mission level rather than inferred from the agency profile alone.[2][4]
