Galileo spreads its wings


 
Deployment of the solar wings on the latest Galileo satellite is shown being checked at ESA's technical hub in the Netherlands. The navigation satellite's pair of 1 x 5 m solar wings, carrying more than 2500 state-of-the-art gallium arsenide solar cells, will power the satellite during its 12-year working life.
