The HUNOR (Hungarian to Orbit) – Hungarian Astronaut Program marks Hungary’s return to human spaceflight forty-five years after Bertalan Farkas became the first Hungarian in space. Our mission is to strengthen Hungary’s position in the international space sector, while advancing national science and innovation through space research. Hungary now has its own research astronaut, Tibor Kapu, who completed a three-week mission aboard the ISS in 2025, conducting 25 experiments developed by Hungarian universities, companies, and research institutes. HUNOR also aims to inspire young people to pursue careers in STEM, ensuring Hungary remains an active and valuable contributor to the future of global space exploration.
