And another one bites the dust
The "last straw" for Gyimah apparently was Britain's exclusion from the military side of the EU Galileo satellite programme, which we have funded and largely developed in recent years.
Mr Gyimah described that as a “clarion call”, saying that the UK’s interests would be “repeatedly and permanently hammered by the EU27 for many years to come”.
The frustrating negotiations over Galileo were only a “foretaste of what is to come”, he said. “Britain will end up worse off, transformed from rulemakers into rule takers. It is a democratic deficit and a loss of sovereignty the public will rightly never accept,” he added

In order to restore British prestige in space, I think the government should commit the country to putting a Grees-Smogg on Mars by March 29 next year.
There are, of course, potential risks associated with such an ambitious goal, but Brexit Britain has never shied away from a risk, no matter how idiotic.
And, in this case, I think that any sacrifices will be well worth it.
