The Israel Space Agency (ISA; Hebrew: סוכנות החלל הישראלית, Sokhnut heKhalal haYisraelit) is a governmental body, a part of Israel's Ministry of Science and Technology, that coordinates all Israeli space research programs with scientific and commercial goals.
The agency was founded by the theoretical physicist Yuval Ne'eman in 1983 to replace the National Committee for Space Research, which had established in 1960 to set up the initial infrastructure required for space missions.[4] The agency is currently headed by Chairperson Dan Blumberg [4] and Director General Uri Oron [he].[2] Today, Israel is the smallest country with indigenous launch capabilities, and well as the smallest to have a space agency.
