...Environmental tests successfully passed by the first two Batch 3 Galileo satellites...Bremen, December 7, 2020. Series production of the satellites for the European Galileo navigation system has taken a major step forward: FM23 and FM24 have successfully completed environmental impact testing at the Space Research and Technology Center of the European Space Agency (ESTEC) in Noordwijk, Netherlands. The first two Batch 3 satellites are expected to be launched jointly from the Kourou Space Center in summer 2021....
There was the Galileo Drawing Competition 2019 in Norway, Croatia and Switzerland.https://ec.europa.eu/growth/sectors/space/galileo/drawing-competition_enThe winners have been announced, but it's been forgotten a bit because of Covid-19.Why should the FOC FM23 no longer be called Patrick because of Brexit?
If there’s no deal(...) The UK will no longer play any part in the development of Galileo or European Geostationary Navigation Overlay programmes.
Eighth launch of Galileo Full Operational Capability (FOC) satellitesOn 24 July 2018, Galileo satellites (codenamed Samuel, Anna, Ellen and Patrick) lifted-off from the European Space Port of Kourou, French Guyana at 13:20 CET aboard Ariane 5 ES flight VA244. The separation of the four satellites from the quadruple dispenser of the launcher occurred as planned. On the basis of the emitted signals, the expected position of the satellites in-orbit was confirmed minutes after the separation of the two pairs.
