This image may not be used to state or imply ESA endorsement of any company or product ExoMars spacecraft vibration testing. Vibration launch testing in 2015 for the European Space Agency's ExoMars spacecraft (lauched March 2016) on a shaker table at Thales Alenia Space, Cannes, France. The main spacecraft is the Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) with folded solar panels and an insulation-sheathed main antenna (lower right). On top is Schiaparelli, the ExoMars Demonstrator Module (EDM) lander that will be used in October 2016 to test landing technologies for the follow-on ExoMars rover (2018). TGO will look for methane in the Martian atmosphere and act as a communications relay for rovers on Mars. Photographed on 23 April 2015
