Greetings from @ESA's operations centre in Germany, where we're following the launch of #BepiColombo together with mission experts. The spacecraft are on the launch pad at Europe's #Spaceport in Kourou & in just over 1 hour will blast off into space. Destination: planet #Mercury
#BepiColombo is a collaboration between @ESA and @JAXA_en to explore the innermost planet in our Solar System. For a primer on #Mercury and the mission, here's a useful thread 👇

Because it's a planet full of mysteries! \U0001f9d0
The #science themes of #BepiColombo range from its surface and interior to its exosphere and magnetic field, and even include tests of Einstein's general relativity \u2b07\ufe0f\u27a1\ufe0f https://t.co/LunXnrMAew pic.twitter.com/89AHKcExMH

Have you ever found yourself in such a surreal situation that you can hardly believe it\u2019s real? I\u2019m currently waiting to be shot into #space by one of humankind's biggest rockets, the mighty #Ariane5. Perfectly normal day, right? #BepiColombo https://t.co/PiENsBc47D pic.twitter.com/j1PAthyTkQ
