#ESAOpenDay went well, I only crashed the ship once.

#ESTEC #Starfield

Europa's eigen mondiale navigatiesatellietsysteem werd bijna dertig jaar geleden ontwikkeld in ESA's technologische hart, #ESTEC , in Noordwijk.

There's been a disturbance in The Force...

A TIE Fighter landed in our Hertz radio frequency chamber for the ESTEC #ESAOpenDay !

'TIE' stands for Twin Ion Engine. Ion engines are something we use a lot in our missions including BepiColombo and ESA's Solar Orbiter.

#DYK that Galileo was born in the Netherlands in the 1990s?

No, not 'that' Galileo. We're talking about Europe’s own global navigation satellite system, developed at ESA ESTEC in Noordwijk almost three decades ago!

A few more things you might not know about Galileo

Here, at the European Space Agency #Estec , Kerbal Space Program 2 is (almost) ready to launch

Tuve la posibilidad de pasarme por ESTEC la semana pasada y echar un vistazo a la sonda Hera, que está en fase de tests. Fue emocionante verla allí y escudriñar todos sus elementos. ¡Si todo va bien, la próxima vez la veré desde Florida para su lanzamiento! ¡Vamos Hera!

No comic today, but: I did get to meet Micky the Space Cat! European Space Agency's technology centre in the Netherlands, ESTEC, has its own cat on campus. And yes, he was very friendly. He also has his own facebook page! facebook.com/profile.php?id…
