Salut!Tag wohl!Welcome

We are very pleased to welcome you at our Swiss Space Summer Camp 2017 first time taking place in Sion at the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland.

During several weeks we brainstormed and tried to make an as attrac-tive as possible programme to bring you Switzerland and our space activ-ities closer. In this booklet you can find short explanations of the detailed programme as well as general information such as public transportation, where the most popular places are to go out and any other practical infor-mation related to the Swiss Space Summer Camp.

None of it would have been possible without the great support of HES-SO and therefore we would like to thank alot the team of HES-SO for hosting and organizing the Swiss Space Camp in Sion!

And finally, we are very happy to welcome you as a participant in Switzerland and looking forward to an exciting week!
