    • Description

      In May 2001, having finished its testing at ESTEC, the Envisat satellite began was packed up and began its journey to French Guayana in preparation for its launch on Ariane 5. The satellite had to be split and transported in two large containers: a Payload Module container and a Service Module container. The satellite was shipped to Kourou, the European Space Port in French Guyana, on 15 May on Board an Antonov 124.
      The satellite arrived safely the same day at destination and was transported by road over night to its integration hall at the Kourou Space Port, where the satellite is being re-assembled, as a first step of the launch campaign.
      This video is an edited B-roll of that journey and includes soundbites by various experts that played a major role in the satellite and its trahsportation to Kourou.
