The National Space Activities Commission (Spanish: Comisión Nacional de Actividades Espaciales, CONAE) is the civilian agency of the government of Argentina in charge of the national space program. The present commission (CONAE) was created on 28 May 1991, during the government of Carlos Menem, after the cancellation of the military Condor missile program in an attempt to move all the commission efforts to civilian purposes. It received the Air Force aerospace facilities in Córdoba and Buenos Aires of the former CNIE, as well as some of the civil personnel involved in the cancelled project.
