ESA and JAXA logo stickers are added to the fairing of the Ariane 5 launcher that will lift BepiColombo into orbit.

BepiColombo is a joint endeavour between ESA and JAXA. It is the first European mission to Mercury, the smallest and least explored planet in the inner Solar System, and the first to send two spacecraft to make complementary measurements of the planet's dynamic environment at the same time.
