The European Space Agency was formed from the union of ESRO (European Space Research Organization) and ELDO (European Launcher Development Organization) in 1975. The head office is in Paris. Created through European cooperation, each member country donates funds to each project. As yet there has been no independent ESA manned mission, but the agency uses the US Space Shuttle to conduct experiments in space, and is developing an orbital laboratory for the International Space Station. 5, record 1, English, - European%20Space%20Agency
