Product Description: BepiColombo is Europe’s first mission to Mercury, named after the renowned Italian professor Giuseppe Colombo, and it commenced its journey in October 2018. This ambitious deep space exploration mission is a collaborative effort between the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), with Airbus playing a crucial role in its development. BepiColombo aims to investigate Mercury’s unique internal structure, magnetic field generation, and its interactions with the Sun and solar wind. Additionally, the mission will explore surface features and chemical compositions, including the presence of ice in permanently shadowed craters at the planet’s poles. By providing valuable insights into Mercury, BepiColombo is set to enhance our understanding of the solar system’s smallest and least-explored terrestrial planet.
