This time-lapse movie shows Gaia sunshield deployment test, the transfer of the Soyuz from the assembly building to the launch pad and the lift off.Ĭopyright: ESA–S. Soyuz VS06, with Gaia space observatory, lifted off from Europe's Spaceport, French Guiana, on 19 December 2013. Time-lapse film Soyuz flight VS06, with Gaia The team made use of their 3D X-ray Tomography Machine to perform non-destructive internal scanning of the module and pin down the source of the fault. ESA's Materials and Electrical Components Laboratory was called in to assess the failure, to see if it was a one-off or else caused by a general manufacturing issue. But during pre-flight testing one of Gaia's memory modules – part of the spacecraft's onboard 'hard disk' – failed.
