Galileo Second Generation

Europe’s Galileo is the world’s most precise satellite navigation system, providing metre-level accuracy to billions of users. ESA and European industry are preparing a new generation of satellites for the European Union, the Galileo Second Generation or G2, that will revolutionise the fleet with enhanced capabilities.

Galileo Second Generation developing at full speed

The building of twelve Galileo Second Generation satellites is progressing rapidly, with several key milestones achieved in recent months. Among the most significant are the successful compatibility tests with ground infrastructure, an essential step as the satellites move through the production cycle.

36–2025: ESA teams up with Leonardo against satnav jamming

Uninterrupted access to satellite navigation is essential in our modern world, but it is threatened daily by external interference, such as jamming and spoofing. New technologies and concepts can help increase the resilience of our satellite navigation solutions. ESA and Leonardo are embarking on a joint project to explore smart antennas powered by Machine Learning to block unwanted signals.

ESA’s LEO-PNT satellites set to launch by end of year

The European Space Agency (ESA) confirms the launch of the first two LEO-PNT satellites is planned from second half of December 2025, on a Rocket Lab Electron launcher vehicle, from New Zealand. The LEO-PNT in-orbit demonstrator mission is a pioneer mission for Europe that will advance satellite navigation concepts for resilient positioning and timing services.
