Great visiting the clean room of Thales Alenia Space in Cannes earlier today. Some of the components that will make up the 2026 European Space Agency (ESA) PLATO mission were on display. The spacecraft will be enormous once it has all its components. Pictured with me in the top image are Thomas Walloschek, Plato program manager for ESA; Pablo Jorba, Plato program manager for OHB; Catherine Vogel, Plato program manager for Thales Alenia Space. One picture is with more of the team. Photos by Emmanuel Briot for Thales Alenia Space. Many thanks to Catherine des Arcis and Isis Barraco in media outreach for the warm welcome and special tour! More to come on #Forbes.
