Aeolus fairing sticker signed

As preparations for the launch of ESA’s latest Earth Explorer continue on track, the team at Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana has bid farewell to the Aeolus satellite as it was sealed from view in its Vega rocket fairing – always an emotional moment for the team. Once encapsulated in the rocket faring, the team signed the fairing sticker … many wishes for a bon voyage and successful mission.
