An Ariane 5 rocket, flying in its ES/Galileo configuration, will launch four Galileo satellites into orbit to join the Galileo Navigation Satellite System. This is the third Galileo quadruplet launch atop an Ariane 5 rocket in the continued effort to deploy the fully operational Galileo constellation for an in-service date of 2020. Flying with a modified EPS Second Stage, Ariane 5 will be tasked with directly delivering the satellites into their checkout orbit 22,900 Kilometers in altitude.
