ESA appoints new women leaders
12 March 2026
There are many paralleles and connections between Outer Space and the polar regions, which is why we’re glad to read about ESA’s newest female leaders:
Céline Begon, Christine Boelsche, Céline Folsché and Ildiko Raczne Szoke are among the women shaping Europe’s future in space.
With women now making up 37% of new recruits and 27% of top management, ESA continues advancing gender balance in the sector.
