Launch of Galileo 7 & 827 Mar Two more satellites for Europe’s Galileo satellite navigation system will be launched on 27 March as deployment of the 30-satellite network continues to ramp up. Media are invited to take part in an audio briefing at 13:00 GMT (14:00 CET) on launch day. Galileo 7 & 8 are scheduled to lift off at 21:46 GMT (22:46 CET, 18:46 local time) on 27 March from Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana on top of a Soyuz rocket. They are expected to become operational by mid-year, after in-orbit testing. |
