BepiColombo satellite (structural and thermal model) in thermal vacuum chamber at ESA in ESTEC

The MERTIS design is now qualified and ready for production of the flight model

Before the flight model was built, MERTIS was qualified using representative pre-models so that it could withstand the high mechanical loads during the launch with Ariane 5 and the thermal conditions on the satellite.
