Pictured here is the ExoMars 2016 Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) core module during integration of its electrical subsystems at Thales Alenia Space, Cannes, France in November 2014. The lower (square) part of the core module is the service module, which houses the majority of the non-instrument subsystems. The main TGO computer, known as the spacecraft management unit, or SMU, is visible at the extreme right of the service module, partially obscured by the vertical pole.
