Ready to move

The Copernicus Sentinel-3B satellite ready on the yellow transport dolly to be moved to the MIK, where it will be placed inside the Rockot fairing.

Sentinel-3B will be carried into orbit on a Rockot launcher, joining its identical twin, Sentinel-3A. The Sentinel-3 mission has been designed to measure systematically Earth’s oceans, land, ice and atmosphere to monitor and understand large-scale global dynamics. It will provide essential information in near-real time for ocean and weather forecasting.
