Cheops competition design space

ESA is offering graphic designers and artists a unique opportunity to feature their work on the rocket carrying the Cheops satellite.

As indicated in this image, the design will be displayed on the fairing of the Soyuz rocket carrying Cheops. The fairing is the outer housing that protects the satellite against the extreme pressure and heat experienced as it punches through Earth’s atmosphere.

The dimensions of the design on the launch fairing will be 1 x 1 m.
