Navigation dual satellite (GSAT0225 & GSAT0227) in the European constellation Galileo.Galileo is the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) that went live in 2016, created by theEuropean Union (EU) through the European Union Agency for Space Programme (EUSPA),headquartered in Prague in the Czech Republic with two ground operations centers,Oberpfaffenhofen (DLR GfR) in Germany and Fucino in Italy. DLR GfR mbH is a core teammember of the Galileo Service Operator (GSOp), operating and managing the constellation ofthe Galileo satellites from the Galileo Control Center in Oberpfaffenhofen (GCC-D).GfR has been selected, for taking over the preparation and execution of LEOP operations fromlaunch. Galileo L12 launch is planned for April 28th 2024. GfR has contracted the German SpaceOperation Center (GSOC) to provide Network Operation Center (NOC) service, includingGround Station Network (GSN).Planned LEOP support from SSC is for a period of 30 days with start on May 14th, 2024.

The next SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch a Starlink batch from pad 40 on April 18 at 6:40-10:40 p.m. EDT. A Falcon 9 will launch a Starlink batch on April 22 at 6:40-10:40 p.m. EDT. Upcoming launches include more Starlink batches. A Falcon 9 will launch two Galileo navigation system satellites for Europe on April 28. Upcoming launches include more Starlink batches.
One week until launch and neither ESA nor EUSPA/EU make any report about it.All the information here are been gathered from various good sources (one of them on site). thanks But what's the problem to making an official announcement? What is secret?

So that means that FM25 and FM27 will be aboard rather then FM25 & FM26?
Having supported Starlink 6-53, launching to the southeast, SpaceX recovery ship Bob appears to be heading northeast to recover the fairing for the upcoming Galileo mission. The booster is expected to be expended.

What is secret?Might it be simple matter of discomfiture over the launcher churn for these satellites?
...Also, what are the official nicknames for the satellites? Is Patrick still official for FM25? And what about FM27?
