Airbus has overall responsibility for the ERO mission, developing the spacecraft in Toulouse, and conducting mission analysis in Stevenage. Other suppliers come from Germany, France, UK, Italy, Spain, Norway, Denmark and The Netherlands.

Airbus is advancing the second European Service Module flight model for NASA’s Orion spacecraft – designated ESM-2 – through its integration test phase, which included gimbal testing of the module’s main engine.

The ESM is Europe’s contribution to the U.S.-developed Orion spacecraft for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

It is six metres high, more than three metres wide, and weighs just over a tonne, and it forms the backbone of the new, second generation of polar-orbiting weather satellites. The structure for the first "B" satellite of the MetOp Second Generation (MetOp-SG) series has arrived at Airbus’ satellite integration centre in Friedrichshafen (Germany).
