Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze the possibilities and directions of development of the Ukrainian space industry in the context of using Ukraine’s space potential. The discourse, as well as political decisions and legal acts, constitute the main research material. The main conclusion of the article is that the technological premises are secondary for the decision-makers who perceive Ukrainian space activity through the prism of state security and strategic advantages resulting from the status of a state involved in the exploitation and exploration of outer space. Moreover, the technological and scientific potential of the Ukrainian space sector from the perspective of cooperation with the European Union is still growing, although it is not effectively used.
