Galileo's initial services have been running for more than 15 months now: signals from the satellites in space are routinely serving users all across the world. The functioning of Galileo is dependent on a global network of ground stations, its current extent shown in the map here.

Con il loro lancio a bordo di un razzo Ariane 5, l'Europa si arricchisce di ulteriori quattro satelliti Galileo per la navigazione satellitare. Dopo il successo odierno, solo un ulteriore lancio rimane prima che la costellazione Galileo sia completata e fornisca quindi una copertura globale.

The Galileo satellites 'Nicole', 'Zofia', 'Alexandre' and 'Irina' are in Earth orbit

The Galileo satellites 'Nicole', 'Zofia', 'Alexandre' and 'Irina' are in Earth orbit - New additions to the navigation system will provide almost complete global coverage from mid-2018


On 12 December 2017 at 19:36 Central European Time (15:36 local time), the 'Nicole', 'Zofia', 'Alexandre' and 'Irina' satellites of the European Galileo satellite navigation system were launched to space on board an Ariane 5 launcher from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana. This was the second successful launch of the specially modified Ariane-5ES version, on which four Galileo satellites, each weighing around 715 kilograms, can be transported simultaneously, an will eventually be placed in a 23,222-kilometre-high orbit. "The satellites will now undergo six months of commissioning in space before being integrated into the navigation system," explains Rene Kleessen, Galileo Programme Manager at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fuer Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) Space Administration. "From mid-2018, almost complete global coverage using Galileo signals will be possible."
