The Space Zone was a themed zone supported by the UK Space Agency. There were six engineers:
- Vinita Marwaha Madil, who plans operations at the European Space Agency (ESA) for future human spaceflight projects.
- Rachel Hudson helps to build and test instruments for two ESA missions to Jupiter and the Sun.
- Pam Anderson, an ambassador for the ESA, helps people understand how they might use space technology for the benefit of life on Earth.
- Christopher Youens, a Spacecraft Operations Engineer takes care of four satellites that perform Earth Observation.
- Brian Weaver, the winner of the zone, uses satellites that fly 20,000 km around the Earth to guide driverless tractors in farms, or ships in the ocean, all around the world.
- Andrew Ratcliffe is the Head of Launch Systems at the UK Space Agency and leads the team investigating how to launch vehicles into space safely.
