Dear All,

Since the launch of the STRV-1c/d satellites, DERA have been concentrating on
checking out the platform systems on-board both spacecraft. These tests have
now completed successfully and both satellites are in excellent shape.
Experiment check-outs will be performed throughout the coming few days, and
data passed to the experimenters for analysis. Nominal operations should be
commenced by the end of November, if these tests are successful.

STRV-1/cd Spacecraft Manager
