The new Galileo satellite model from Thales Alenia Space underwent mechanical and signal performance testing this summer at ESA's ESTEC Test Centre. Structural models resisted launch-like noise and vibrations while an electrical model proved its ability to send Galileo signals - a major milestone in the development of Galileo's Second Generation.
