ESA at the UK Space Conference

The team behind ESA's upcoming Vigil mission attended the UK Space Conference in Manchester from 16 to 17 July. The Vigil team participated in a stage session on mitigating the impacts of space weather, completed a media briefing for journalists, and delivered several outreach sessions to local school children. This photo features a scale model of Vigil, carefully placed next to an inflatable Sun to mimic the position the mission will take once it reaches orbit.
