The EU, as an emerging space power, tries to exploit the space to realize efficiently its global power role. Cooperation between the EU, particular member states and other space-faring actors concerning space seems to be the only option to develop real capabilities since the pooling of resources is a precondition for the success. However, available research on that subject is primary focused on its economic part or political bargains, when other issues like security and interactions between technology and international affairs are omitted. Therefore, the paper discusses the transfer of European norms and ideas regarding outer space endeavours, by placing the emphasis on interactions between space affairs, security and technology on European security. In particular, the chapter surveys sectors, methods, and spheres of the European space policy, and analyses the empirical analysis of space applications and their implications for European internal security. Thus, it offers a critical technological as well as political analysis of the satellite-based capacities that the EU is currently creating, which contrasts with political statements and widely shared assumptions about the possibility of real-time "integrated border management".
