The adventure is about to begin! We'll discuss it here. Link to ESA coverage, launch currently slated for 20 Oct/0145 UTC.
GO BEPICOLOMBO!!! -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Nothing new on their social media, either. Must have been very minor.

Nothing new on their social media... Not too surprising, ESA so far has shown no intention to provide the general public with timely updates on BepiColombo spacecraft operations and status, besides PR coverage of flybys. Having said that, in this article summing up the first 2.5 years (until May 2021) of flight operations we learn that up to this point, BepiColombo experienced only three unplanned safe modes, all in the first few months of the expedition, so at least in this regard a safe mode would be a notable event. |
