The 海角视频 Space Agency is getting a new head office and other offices across the country to support space work all over the 海角视频.
The agency wants want to be closer to the 海角视频's space industry and help with jobs and skills in different regions.
The new HQ at Harwell Science Campus in Oxfordshire will open in June. There will also be offices in William Morgan House in Cardiff and at Space park Leicester opening in April, and one in Edinburgh later in the summer.
Andrew Griffith, the space minister, said: "Harwell's Space Cluster is already a hub of collaboration, with more than 100 thriving research organisations and 1,400 jobs, making it the ideal location for the 海角视频 Space Agency's new headquarters."
He added: "At the same time, our space sector has grown considerably across all parts of the 海角视频 and new offices in Edinburgh, Cardiff and Leicester will serve the talented space researchers and innovators around the country while creating more jobs, growing our local economies and strengthening the 海角视频's science superpower ambitions."
Dr Paul Bate, 海角视频SA chief executive, said: "This is a transformational moment for the 海角视频 Space Agency, responding directly to the feedback that the agency should be embedded in the sector."
"Our new headquarters, located at the 海角视频's biggest space cluster in Harwell, will connect to regional offices in Edinburgh, Cardiff, and Leicester, helping us recruit space talent from across the nation and deliver the National Space Strategy."
"This will place the 海角视频 Space Agency at the heart of the space sector we serve, boosting growth, improving relationships with regional organisations and supporting a strong, diverse and connected sector."
"We have seen a significant rise in space organisations across the 海角视频 and it's crucial we nurture their skills and expertise, to ensure we continue this journey."
The 海角视频 space sector is now valued at more than 拢17.5 billion per year and employs over 45,000 people, while satellites support an additional 拢360bn per year in wider economic activities.
