The satellite

United States-based satellite technology 'GPS' (General Positioning System) is the best one to address the global surveillance, communication and location of something. Many European countries including the United Kingdom are reliant on GPS and GPS for various purposes.

As an alternative to GPS, the European Union (EU) took its own new satellite project 'Galileo' in 2003. Its work is expected to be completed in 2021. Now the EU says, the UK will not get access to Galileo's sensitive issues after the breaks (the UK's separation from the EU). This happened in the hazard.

A few months ago the dispute began. The United Kingdom has been an important partner of the Galileo project since its inception. They want this to be the full use of this project and to be equally partners in any developmental initiative. But the EU has said that after the exit of the EU, the Galileo will not get access to sensitive matters (public and military use materials).

The United Kingdom The country has announced itself to set up its own satellite system like the Galileo project. The government has allocated 92 million pounds for the purpose, including the cost of the project, time and affordability, as well as an inclusive probability. Prime Minister Thraceau officially announced this allotment on May last.

The UK Space Agency said in a statement that the UK government is clearly saying - the United Kingdom wants to be fully involved in the Galileo project. But the UK will be forced to withdraw itself from the project if the British companies do not have the same opportunity to provide the same security information as required in military and military work, without the assurance that they will have the opportunity to act as the equal partner in the present and the future.

The European Commission and the European Space Agency Galileo took the project. The member countries of the EU are equal partners. The whole system will be formed in combination with 24 different satellites. There will be six additional satellites as a backup. 26 satellites have already been completed. By the year 2021, the remaining four satellites will be completed.
