Vega-C Launch Prepares to Deploy FLEX and Sentinel-3C Satellites

At the European Spaceport in French Guiana, the final stages of preparation for a highly anticipated Earth‑observation mission are underway. The Vega‑C rocket’s fairing now encloses both the FLEX satellite and the Copernicus Sentinel‑3C, marking a key milestone before launch. The dual‑satellite payload is set to launch together, leveraging the Vega‑C’s proven launch vehicle to deliver advanced Earth‑monitoring instruments into orbit. This step brings the mission closer to its scheduled launch window, ensuring that both satellites will soon begin collecting data for climate and maritime applications.
