The International Space Exploration Coordination Group (ISECG) has released its 2025 annual report, reflecting the outcomes of discussions held during the group’s Senior Agency Managers’ (SAMs) face-to-face meeting in December 2025 at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center (KSC).
The annual report provides an overview of ISECG’s activities, achievements, and collaborative efforts over the past year, highlighting progress across working groups, milestones achieved through international cooperation, and continued engagement with a broad range of space agencies in coordinated exploration strategies.
The annual meeting brought together senior representatives from participating agencies to assess progress across ISECG activities, review key outcomes from the past year, and discuss priorities for future international cooperation in space exploration.
NASA, represented by Lori Glaze, Deputy Associate Administrator for NASA’s Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate, currently serves as chair of ISECG. Reflecting on the role of the meeting in guiding ISECG’s work, Dr. Glaze noted that the annual SAM meeting plays a key role in reviewing ISECG progress and shaping future collaborative priorities, while ensuring alignment between participating agencies’ objectives and shared exploration ambitions.
Discussions during the meeting focused on recently completed and upcoming deliverables, strengthened engagement with emerging and mid‑sized space agencies, and improved coordination across ISECG working groups. The exchange also highlighted the importance of sharing lessons learned and fostering targeted cooperation to maximise the benefits of international collaboration in space exploration.
The 2025 ISECG annual report is available online and serves as a reference for ISECG participating agencies, stakeholders, and the broader space community.
