MADRID : Spain has approved a statute regulating the functions of its recently launched state space agency amid a push by European countries to keep pace with global rivals, Science Minister Diana Morant said on Tuesday.

While the AEE was given a one-year deadline since its official creation in September to kick off, it already started operating last month."We're six months ahead of schedule," Morant said.
