Payload testing update

Launch updates

Yesterday, the payload clocks were tested. They lock to the required frequency and work correctly.

Today is the first switch-on of the RF transmission system of the payload, which will send the first Galileo navigation signals to the ground.

There will be more updates tomorrow.
