Europe's space programme: to Ariane and beyond, notes the DRI had budget in excess of 2.6 million Euros supporting a staff of 40 people, with an additional 25 million Euros going to the ESA in 2001. Its primary areas of research was astrophysics and . A great deal of the research was concentrated on X-ray coming from astronomical objects. DRI have had X-ray equipment on board the Russian Satellite Granat and the European EURECA satellite. The now concluded , which resulted in the aforementioned Oersted (Ørsted) satellite, was headed by DRI. The DRI space missions were supervised by the . On 1 January 2005 the DRI and the geodesy part of Kort & Matrikelstyrelsen merged to form the Danish National Space Center. The DRI prepared instruments/components for: * Granat, X-Ray/Gamma-Ray space observatory * Viking program, Mars lander/Orbiter * Cluster mission, Earth observation satellites * * Ørsted satellite, Earth magnetic field observations * Plank mission As of 2010, the Ørsted is still in orbit and returning data.
