Space remote sensing technology is a useful scientific and technical means to realize sustainable development of the society of mankind now and future. Peace and development are the common desires of the people across the world and become the current of the present era. Nowadays, cooperation in scientific research and technical works among different countries has been the trend. 'Open the door to the outside world' policy adopted by the Chinese Government gives great warranty and strong motivation for cooperation and communication between China and the world. CAST as a leading space group of China has a strong willing to cooperate with ESA, NASA and other nation's space bodies.
