		<description><![CDATA[European Commission Vice President Antonio Tajani has announced in London that the consortium led by OHB System AG and Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL) will build a further eight satellites for the European Union’s Galileo satellite navigation programme under the supervision of the European Space Agency. The new contract will see SSTL continuing its role as payload prime, assembling, integrating and testing the navigation payloads in the UK, whilst OHB System, as the prime contractor, builds the eight satellite platforms and executes the final integration of all the satellites in Germany. The SSTL-OHB partnership is already building fourteen satellites for the Galileo programme and will draw on its heritage and experience to produce the additional satellites to demanding schedules.

		<description><![CDATA[Independent live testing of NovelSat’s 3G-Sat modulation technology, NS3 has shown that, for the first time, broadcasting data via satellite can be accomplished at fibre level costs. The testing was conducted in collaboration with the leading satellite company SES (Euronext Paris and Luxembourg Stock Exchange: SESG) and Satellite Mediaport Services (SMS) of Rugby UK , a leading data services provider teleport. By combining NS3’s ability to increase data rates over DVB-S2’s capabilities with the inherent low costs of an inclined orbit space segment, broadcasting data via satellite at fibre level broadcasting costs is now possible.
